Description

Hosted by Christopher O’Connor, MD, this episode dives into why site-based research is “broken” — fragmented, inefficient, and weighed down by administrative and regulatory burdens.

Many clinical research sites — especially community hospitals and smaller practices — face inconsistent funding, delayed contract approvals, and limited infrastructure for study coordination and data management.

Join Dr. O’Connor and expert guests Melvin Echols, MD; Anu Lala-Trindade, MD; Maria Rosa Costanzo, MD; Dalane Kitzman, MD, Marat Fudim, MD; and Sumeet Mitter, MD as they unpack the systemic challenges and explore how to create a more efficient, equitable research ecosystem.
