GEAUXing Beyond at ACRP 2025

A Gathering with Purpose

Our team had the rare opportunity to come together for an international meeting of minds at ACRP 2025 in New Orleans. The energy in the room matched the conference theme—GEAUX BEYOND—as professionals from across the globe shared ideas on how to improve clinical research for the people who matter most: the patients.

Key Takeaways

Listening as a Foundation for Progress

Throughout the sessions and conversations, one truth stood out—clinical research works best when it’s shaped by the people who participate in it. Their stories, challenges, and successes aren’t just part of the process; they guide it. By listening and responding to what participants tell us, we can build studies that are more relevant, respectful, and impactful.

Bridging Research and Everyday Healthcare

Too often, clinical research is seen as something separate from medical care. In reality, it can be a valuable part of your health plan. Participating in a study may open doors to new treatments, provide extra medical attention, and help you take a more active role in your wellbeing—just like any other step you’d take to manage your health.

Moving Forward with Intention

We returned from ACRP 2025 with a renewed commitment: to make research simpler to understand, easier to access, and more inclusive for all communities. Because when research is truly centered on the patient, it doesn’t just advance medicine—it changes lives.
