    End-to-End Clinical Research Data in Real-Time

    We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Dave Sunderhaft, COO at nPhase AI. In this episode, I sit down with Sunderhaft, COO at nPhase AI, to talk about end-to-end clinical research data in Real-time. nPhase replaces fragmented point solutions and workflows with a unified, real-time AI-native platform that delivers enterprise-grade data across the entire clinical lifecycle. We talk about Dave’s personal journey and the company’s evolution from the free but closed-source EDC system for academia, RedCap to the commercial version – RedCap Cloud – to the recent rebranding as nPhase AI. Check out the main topics of discussion for this episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast: Tell us about the journey. How do you create value? How does this compare with Veristat Instat? Considering that SDTM is a 2004 standard designed to help human statisticians process tables, was SDTM your first choice? Why not use a model based on Scuba, which is Facebook’s internally developed, ultra-fast distributed in-memory database used for real-time data analysis? How do you capture value? What are three things you want to do for your customers in the next year? What is the biggest anti-pattern in your industry?

    MRO Connects Humans and Clinical Data

    We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Lidia Bernik, President, Curation Solutions at MRO Corp!

How do you create value at MRO, given this tremendously rich background? What’s your business model? How do you make money from helping hospitals find patients for clinical trials?
