Titel: Conducting Clinical Trials: An Overview of Challenges and Opportunities From the Perspective of Medical Informatics Abstract: Conducting clinical trials is important to introduce new drugs, compare different therapies or deepen knowledge of existing procedures. From planning clinical trials to presenting the final results a vast variety of tasks must be performed. All these tasks require to be in line with certain guidelines, but are very inhomogeneous with each other and are often based on different computer systems. This brings great opportunities for medical informatics to improve the existing structures and workflows by introducing new computer technologies and software solutions. In this talk, an overview of different aspects of conducting clinical trials from the perspective of medical informatics is given. The focus will be on published innovations or approaches in development by the Institute of Medical Informatics.
