Vitruvian Shield
About · Scientific Advisory Board

Scientific Advisory Board & Investigator Network

The clinicians, methodologists, and translational researchers who shape Vitruvian Shield and prepare the studies on it.

Role of the Board

The Scientific Advisory Board provides scientific oversight of the platform, reviews protocols submitted by partner institutions, contributes to publications under the ICMJE authorship criteria, and reviews the platform against the requirements of decentralised and hybrid clinical research. The Board is composed of academic clinicians, methodologists, and principal investigators from the institutions preparing studies on Vitruvian Shield.
