ICON Eyecare experiences 66% data quality improvement and 90% increase in efficiency.
Dr. James Fox of ICON Eyecare (Grand Junction, CO) discusses what it really takes to scale clinical research today. He walks through the burnout his team faced, the turning point that led to adopting AI teammates, and the measurable improvements in data quality, team capacity, and growth. He unpacks the staffing paradox in research, the trust that's at stake, and what it means for the future when AI and humans work side-by-side. His site, running 30 trials with a lean team, is a case study in what happens when AI meets the real-world pressure of clinical operations.
