The Annual FDA/PhUSE Computational Science Symposium, to be held on March 18th and 19th 2013 in
Silver Spring, Maryland, provides the premier forum for industry and FDA to collaborate in the realm of
computational science.
PhUSE, an independent, non‐profit community of professionals focused around the advancement of clinical
information is proud to co‐sponsor, along with The Food and Drug Administration, the Annual FDA/PhUSE
Computational Science Symposium, to be held on March 18th and 19th 2013 in Silver Spring, Maryland, USA.
The symposium is an opportunity for FDA, the pharmaceutical industry, academia, and other computational
science stakeholders to meet in a collaborative environment.
“The symposium provides a platform for FDA and industry to collaborate with the goal of closing some of the
gaps we face in delivering information to the FDA and solving the challenges FDA deals with during their
review cycle,” says Chris Decker, PhUSE FDA Liaison and Vice President, Life Sciences Practice at d‐Wise.
A vital part of the stakeholder collaboration resulted from the creation of working groups at the annual
symposium in 2012. The working group areas of focus are: Data Quality, Data Standards, Standard Scripts,
Non‐clinical. The 2013 Symposium will provide a venue for these groups to continue their collaborative efforts,
as well as to share the exciting progress that they have made in 2012. Additional projects are being formed to
address increasing challenges to the access and review of data identified since the previous meeting.
Participants are encouraged to submit abstracts for a poster session at the Symposium. Abstracts are due by
January 31st 2013.
The Symposium will be held at the Silver Spring Civic Building at Veterans Plaza.
Improving Relationships and Diversifying the Site Selection Process
April 17th 2025In this episode of the Applied Clinical Trials Podcast, Liz Beatty, co-founder and chief strategy officer, Inato, discusses a number of topics around site engagement including community-based sites, the role of technology in improving site/sponsor relationships, how increased operational costs are impacting the industry, and more.
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.
