| Outline content | Use of computer systems in clinical research has evolved over past 35 years from paper to remote data capture, to electronic data capture, further cloud based, RPA and in recently with AI. The core functional roles in clinical research like Clinical Data Manger always had dependency on computer experts. With Agentic AI taking leaps will we still need IT/computer experts? The computer engineers, system builders, programmers, configuration specialist who are supporting data managers and other core functions in clinical research can be completely replaced by AI Agent. Data Managers can now interact with these agents in their natural language by prompting what they need and agents will work accordingly. Throughout setup, conduct and close out phases, we have reimagined several process steps which can now be taken care by agents without needing a person with computer skills and designed CDM Intelli Workbench which acts as a companion to a data manager throughout the trial. |
