1. Background and Rationale (Clinical Research Challenge)

Wearables, sensors, personal devices are used in data collection for clinical trials - sponsors have limited control and industry standards are needed.  New constructs are required for the governance of their use in clinical trials.  With the rapid adoption in the use of personal devices in clinical trials, the industry must be able to establish a clear scope of responsibilities among all stakeholders.
