## Resource

2025-12-05 Hosts Dr. Amir Kalali, Craig Lipset, and Jane Myles were joined by Noelle Gaskill and Karla Polk from Tempus AI to unpack how DCTs are expanding access and accelerating research, especially in oncology. They explored how Tempus’ data-connected site network, genomics capabilities, and operational model help match patients faster, streamline startup timelines, and support community practices in running complex trials. The conversation covers real-world strategies for patient activation, managing variability across sites, partnering with CROs, and enabling rural and community-based providers to participate in research. They also touched on the future: global expansion plans and how DCT approaches could extend beyond oncology into other therapeutic areas.
