Clinical research doesn't move in straight lines. It stalls, pivots, and demands more from the people inside it than most industries ever would... And yet, every single day, those people show up for the patients counting on them. Today we're celebrating that, and sharing how we stay fully immersed in this world, from the conferences we attend to the placements that matter most.

In our latest podcast, S. Yin Ho, MD, MBA and Pippa Wilson unpack the story behind health IT's fragmented foundation and why it matters more than ever as AI enters the picture. From the separation of research and clinical care, to 30 years of infrastructure decisions made without data quality in mind, Dr. Ho explores how we got here and the risks of applying AI to a system that was never built with it in mind. How do we move forward responsibly when the foundation itself is fragmented? That's the question at the heart of her book, Rushing Headlong: Health IT's Legacy and the Road to Responsible AI. Catch the full conversation ahead of #ISPOR2026 and visit the Barrington James team and Dr. Ho at Booth 532 on Monday, May 18 to continue the conversation. #ispor2026 #generativeai #healthtech #lifesciences #healthcareinnovation

It is a reminder that behind every clinical trial, every research milestone, and every regulatory submission, there is a human story worth paying attention to.

Barrington James will be attending ISPOR 2026, taking place in Philadelphia from May 17–20. As healthcare decision-making becomes increasingly data-driven, ISPOR continues to be one of the most important forums for discussions around HEOR, market access, evidence generation, and patient outcomes. We are looking forward to hearing how organisations are navigating evolving payer expectations, demonstrating value, and approaching access strategy in an increasingly complex global market. Having attended previously, we know the value these conversations bring, not only in understanding where the industry is heading, but also in helping us stay closely aligned with the challenges and priorities shaping the market today. Representing Barrington James at the conference will be Executive & Associate Directors, Matthew Bulley & Max Gifford; Principal Consultant, Tom Newland, alongside Senior Consultants Thomas Young and Ben Waterman. If you are attending, we would welcome the opportunity to connect and exchange perspectives. You can find the rest of our Q2 conference schedule on our website. https://lnkd.in/eVQQzNwJ #ISPOR2026 #BarringtonJames #LifeSciences #HEOR #MarketAccess #HealthEconomics #LifeSciences

6 weeks of searching, 42 working days of missed output. Projects stalled, team stretched and at the end of it, you might not even get the right person. That's what interim hiring looks like without the right infrastructure behind it. 24/7 access to vetted, approved contractors. Filter by specialism, availability and experience to find exactly who you need. One platform that manages from brief to placement. No chasing agencies. No inbox chaos. No, starting from zero every time. https://lnkd.in/eaMMCT57. #BarringtonJames #LifeSciences #ContractorHub #Pharma #MedicalDevice #TalentStrategy #HiringManagers #RegulatoryAffairs #ClinicalHiring #WorkforcePlanning

Ahead of #ISPOR2026, Sales Director Pippa Wilson sits down with S. Yin Ho, MD, MBA  to discuss her new book Rushing Headlong: Health IT's Legacy and the Road to Responsible AI and the rapidly evolving future of generative AI in healthcare. Drawing from her experience leading through the rise of AI adoption in health tech, Dr. Ho explores why she felt compelled to document this moment in time, as the pace of innovation began accelerating faster than the conversations around its long-term implications. The discussion touches on the growing role of generative AI in research, data quality, decision making and the importance of maintaining perspective as the industry moves forward at speed. Visit us at Booth 532 on Monday, May 18 during #ISPOR2026, where Dr. Ho will be available to answer questions and discuss the themes explored in her book. Where is healthcare innovation heading next, and how do we ensure technology evolves responsibly alongside it?

Something we get asked a lot at Barrington James: “Do you have anyone available right now?” Not in 4–6 weeks. Not pending notice. Right now. The reality is contract hiring has become painfully slow. Endless briefing calls, delayed CVs, and by the time the process starts, the best contractors are already gone. So we decided to change it. We’ve launched the Barrington James Contractor Hub. A live platform built around speed, accessibility, and quality. A place where clients can instantly access pre-vetted contractors we actually know, many of whom we’ve placed before and would recommend without hesitation. From CMOs and CRAs to Regulatory, QA, Medical Writing and HEOR specialists - across Pharma, Biotech, MedTech and Service Providers. If you’re missing critical talent right now, it’s worth a look: https://lnkd.in/gkQTp4aF Or just drop us a message.
