As the clinical research industry pushes toward innovative solutions to increase inclusivity and access, it’s time to look beyond traditional site-based trial models and digital platforms. Expanding access isn’t just about technology-centered solutions – it’s about rethinking where and how trials happen. This session explores how community-based research models, including mobile research sites, mobile clinicians, and flexible visit options, are redefining what it means to bring research to patients. This session will explore how building trust and presence in local communities leads to better enrollment, stronger retention, and more representation data.
