• eSRA Users! Just a reminder that the eSource-Readiness Assessment (eSRA) information and file downloads were moved to the tab Site Sys Assmts (eclinicalforum.org) 3 months ago, and that the tab “eSRA” will be removed from our website around July 5. So, any internal documentation that refers to the tab: eSRA (eclinicalforum.org) needs to be replaced with the new tab link.
• June webinar recording available – you want to watch this!  Dr. Viviënne van de Walle, a Principal Investigator with vast site and patient experience shared her insight into Site experience in the day-and-age of hybrid e-trials. The recording is available in the members section of our website (so, login or register for an account).
