About the Webinar

Clinicians and the healthcare industry often approach the same data with different priorities and interpretations. While doctors tend to focus on patient outcomes, safety, and real-world applicability, industry professionals may emphasize statistical significance, market potential, and regulatory benchmarks. These differing lenses can shape how each group views clinical trials, endpoints, and evidence strength. Recognizing these perspectives is essential for meaningful collaboration, transparent communication, and ensuring that data-driven decisions ultimately benefit patients.
