*** Join our weekly Real-World Wednesdays (RWW) Clubhouse room every Wed @ 11am Eastern US Time*** All things related to the collection, creation & use of Real-World Data (RWD) in generating Real-World Evidence (RWE) for clinical research, drug development, medical devices, value access and other activities for BioPharma and the Life Sciences! Real-World Data (RWD): data relating to a person’s health status or well-being, or the care received by a person, as collected from real-world settings (as opposed to the controlled clinical trial setting) [aka observational data, healthcare data, etc.] Real-World Evidence (RWE): the appropriate analysis of RWD Reliable RWD + Appropriate Analysis = Meaningful RWE
