Survey on time use and process barriers in clinical studies

How much time do professionals spend on clinical studies, and what process-related challenges do they face?

This survey aims to assess time use and identify process-related bottlenecks experienced by professionals involved in clinical studies. It is part of a National Priority Project, which focuses on identifying and proposing high-impact use cases for AI in clinical research.

The project is a national, multidisciplinary initiative within the SCTO, led by CTU-EOC and involving all interested Swiss Clinical Research Centres (CRCs ).

Your input is valuable! Investigators, sponsors and CRC members are invited to participate and help identify opportunities to improve clinical trial processes.

The anonymous survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete.
