America's clinical trial system is outdated and slows the translation of biomedical innovation into lifesaving therapies, causing delays, increased costs, and limited patient access. Artificial intelligence, by integrating patient care and clinical research data, offers a path to faster patient recruitment, broader trial participation, and continuous learning in healthcare.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Healthtech Infrastructure.

◆ The Wire takeaway

AI is now bridging care and research to identify patients for trials automatically, opening access beyond elite centres and cutting the months-long delays that block drug development and inflate prices.
