<p>During the pandemic, the need to develop therapeutic approaches became critical and so the need to study them in a structured way to critically evaluate their effectiveness. Innovative strategies to conduct clinical trials under difficult circumstances were required. We will discuss these strategies with some people who created them!<br /> <br /> <strong>Objectives:</strong><br /> • Understand the main challenges to conduct clinical trials in the middle of a pandemic both in the developed and developing world<br /> • Discuss strategies for patient recruitment and evaluation.</p> <p>• Deliberate on future strategies to study new therapies for emerging pathogens.</p> <p><strong>Guests:</strong><br /> • David Boulware, MD MPH. Professor of Medicine and Infectious Diseases, University of Minnesota.<br /> • Eduardo López-Medina, MD.
