Medrio and Bioforum Partner
Medrio, a provider of eClinical technology for pharma, medical device, and diagnostic companies conducting clinical trials, and Bioforum, a data-focused contract research organization (CRO) offering end-to-end services to life sciences companies worldwide, have announced a partnership to optimize the clinical data standardization process. The collaboration will provide Medrio clients with access to JET-Convert, Bioforum’s solution for standardizing clinical data in a regulatory compliant, submission-ready format, furthering efforts to accelerate clinical trial timelines while improving patient safety and outcomes.
Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) technology, Bioforum’s solution automates clinical data standardization using a submission-ready format that follows Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) guidelines. Required by the FDA, CDISC standards address the need to better structure and improve the quality and consistency of research data, allowing for the meaningful exchange of information between all clinical trial stakeholders, including clinicians, researchers, pharmaceutical companies and regulatory authorities.
“Reducing variation and standardizing clinical data is central to improving its quality and usability,” said Mike Novotny, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Medrio. “We’re thrilled to partner with Bioforum and provide our clients with access to its pioneering JET-Convert solution, a powerful tool that will enable better data integration and reusability, the facilitation of data exchange with partners as well as regulatory reviews and audits, and, ultimately, speed up efforts to bring innovative medical treatments to patients around the world.”
Bioforum’s Co-Founder and President Amir Malka added, “Our partnership with Medrio addresses the industry’s urgent need for a solution that can standardize clinical data at scale. We’re excited to launch this collaboration and confident that together we can help our life sciences clients improve efficiencies in all stages of clinical development-from study design and start-up through execution and submission.”

Behind the Buzz: Why Clinical Research Leaders Flock to SCOPE Summit
February 7th 2025In this episode, we meet with Micah Lieberman, Executive Conference Director for SCOPE Summit (Summit for Clinical Ops Executives) at Cambridge Innovation Institute. We will dive deep into the critical role of collaboration within the clinical research ecosystem. How do we bring together diverse stakeholders—sponsors, CROs, clinical trial tech innovators, suppliers, patients, sites, advocacy organizations, investors, and non-profits—to share best practices in trial design, program planning, innovation, and clinical operations? We’ll explore why it’s vital for thought leaders to step beyond their own organizations and learn from others, exchanging ideas that drive advancements in clinical research. Additionally, we’ll discuss the pivotal role of scientific conferences like SCOPE Summit in fostering these essential connections and collaborations, helping shape the future of clinical trials. Join us as we uncover how collective wisdom and cross-industry partnerships are transforming the landscape of clinical research.
