NEW RESEARCH available here: https://lnkd.in/eHzN4tEZ This Milken Institute Health report is the first-ever investigation of the dynamics of the supply of clinical trial sites. Using all United States-based clinical trial sites involved in pharmaceutical studies (phases 1-4) from 2017 to 2024, this report documents the underlying processes that determine the supply of clinical trial sites. Explore the research to learn: ✅ How often do sites open and close?  ✅ How long do sites stay in operation?  ✅ What local and trial characteristics are associated with site longevity? #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch

Did you know? More than 2.2 billion people are living with vision impairment or blindness—yet in at least one billion cases, it could have been prevented or is still untreated. As populations age and chronic disease rates rise, the burden of vision loss is expected to grow by more than 60 percent by 2050, placing additional strain on families, communities, and health systems. A new Milken Institute report, "Public Health Pathways for Vision Loss Prevention," examines case studies from the United States, Germany, Japan, and China, and outlines four priority actions for policymakers, health leaders, and community stakeholders. By embedding vision health into chronic disease prevention and whole-person care, health systems can deliver more sustainable, effective solutions that strengthen public health worldwide.
