The Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development at the Tufts University School of Medicine is conducting an ambitious global study to characterize and benchmark the impact of decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) on sponsor-CRO collaborations. This is one of the most comprehensive surveys of its kind among clinical research professionals and it will gather critical baselines to compare against future results. We are focused on gaining insights and perceptions on this topic across a wide range of organizations and appreciate your time on this research.

The survey should take approximately 30 minutes of your time. Your responses will be strictly confidential and will only be reported in the aggregate; none of the study findings can be traced back to any individual or organization. A summary report of de-identified, aggregate results will be shared with 10 pharmaceutical companies and contract research organizations (CROs) that funded the study. In appreciation for completing the survey, we’ll send you a summary of the results. Thank you in advance for your participation in this important research effort!
