Sponsors Are Selecting Fewer Clinical Research Sites: Here's How To Be One Of Them

According to CenterWatch Monthly, clinical trial sponsors and CROs are moving away from their traditional approach of working with a large number of trial sites and are instead now concentrating on investing more time and money in fewer, select sites.
