DeepDive The Future of Oncology

This year’s ASCO showed us that while COVID-19 might be front and centre of everyone’s minds, the desire to see real change in cancer treatment hasn’t diminished. In this issue of Deep Dive, Jennifer Harris from Syneos Health discusses the biggest takeaways from the conference with Richard Staines.

We also take a look at how COVID-19 is affecting cancer trials, and what the industry can do to solve these issues.
