We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Alex Deyle, VP & General Manager, Clinical Research at Flatiron Health. Flatiron started out using humans and tech to turn unstructured data into clean, structured data and then moved on to develop their own community EHR for oncology. Today, they help pharma design clinical protocols that are more likely to succeed scientifically and commercially. They use their own EHR data to activate sites for patient enrollment and also acquire data for the clinical trial, simplifying the process and workflow of data collection and GCP assurance.
Flatiron has a unique 2-sided platform business model where sites participate for free and sponsors share success and risk with Flatiron.
