NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2021 -- TransPerfect Life Sciences, a leading provider of services and technologies to support global clinical trials and product development for the biopharmaceutical industry, today announced its Trial Interactive eClinical innovation team will be leading and participating in three TMF-focused sessions at the 10th Annual Trial Master File Summit.

Industry thought leaders and TMF experts Gillian Gittens, Director, eClinical Strategy & Solutions, and Laurel-Ann Schrader, Director, Client Solutions, will lead two sessions: a workshop and a general session.

• Working with TMF Vendors (Monday, October 25, 9:00 AM EDT): This workshop will provide a guide for sponsors to pick a TMF vendor who understands their organization, supports their goals and objectives, and helps ensure an inspection-ready TMF.
• Everything You Need to Know About Audit Trails (Tuesday, October 26, 11:00 AM EDT): This session will define what an eTMF audit trail is and discuss why an eTMF audit trail is required, the elements of an eTMF audit trail, necessary audit trail capabilities, and audit trail reviews.
• TMF Roundtable (Tuesday, October 26, 6:30 PM EDT): Additionally, Gittens and Schrader will take part in a Q&A roundtable discussion where they will share perspectives with other roundtable participants on best practices for effective TMF management.

Gittens and Schrader are annual participants in the TMF Summit and contributors to the TMF Reference Model, and Gittens is an active member of the TMF Reference Model Steering Committee. With decades of experience between them, they lead TransPerfect’s Trial Interactive’s TMF services, with Gittens also acting as eClinical strategist for the Trial Interactive platform. Their expertise spans all functions of the TMF and they frequently conduct customer workshops and expert webinars to help keep industry peers informed on trends, strategies, and best practices for successful TMF management and inspection readiness.

“Gillian and Laurel-Ann are two of the most knowledgeable TMF subject matter experts in the industry,” commented Michael Smyth, Division President of TransPerfect Life Sciences. “Their sessions always deliver practical advice for clinical operations, demonstrating great insight into the needs, challenges, and goals of TMF teams.
