Dr. Jose Galvez, former FDA executive, joins IgniteData to discuss how the Archer platform is transforming clinical trials by automating EHR to EDC data transfer. In this conversation with Julie McCann, they explore how real-time data, digital protocols, and seamless integration are advancing speed, safety, and site satisfaction in clinical research.

Accelerating Clinical Trials: Dr. Jose Galvez on IgniteData’s Archer

When EHR data flows directly to your EDC, everything speeds up—visibility, queries, go/no-go calls.But medicine resists change. That’s why Ignite partners closely with sponsors and sites to prove reliability and eliminate ambiguity at the source.

Dr. Jose Galvez breaks down why correct mapping matters, and how it fuels ROI and better outcomes.

Enhancing Patient Safety and ROI in Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are still written like manuscripts, and that’s slowing everything down.

From site activation delays to missed patient matches, the lack of machine-readable protocols is holding back progress. Dr. Jose Galvez explains why metadata-tagged, computable protocols are the future, and what it will take to get there.

The Future of Clinical Research and Digital Protocols

“Computers don’t make errors. They move data from source to system—fast, accurate, and without disruption.”

Dr. Jose Galvez, former FDA and NIH, shares why he joined IgniteData—and how we’re changing the future of clinical trials by eliminating manual transcription and ensuring data integrity from the bedside to the EDC.

Why EHR-to-EDC in Transforming Clinical Trials

True EHR-to-EDC innovation requires buy-in from both sides—and how IgniteData’s success depends on balancing the needs of engaged clinical sites with the demands of sponsor portfolios. It’s a delicate, dynamic ecosystem—and one that makes the work deeply meaningful.

The Role of Technology in Clinical Trials

Before joining IgniteData, Carson Goff witnessed firsthand how even the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies were still struggling with manual data transcription in 2025. In this clip, he shares how Ignite Data’s solution filled a critical gap that others couldn’t, unlocking a path to faster, more accurate clinical research. What makes Ignite unique, he explains, is not just the technology—but the mission: connecting top researchers and drugmakers to make a real impact on people’s lives.

Understanding Client Needs and Challenges

The Provider Development team at IgniteData takes a different approach—none come from traditional sales. With backgrounds in consulting, project management, and EHR deployment, their focus is on solving site challenges, not selling software. In every conversation, they aim to collaborate, not pitch—and sites notice the difference.

Unique Approach to Business Development

Carson Goff reflects on how recent advancements—like SMART on FHIR, cloud infrastructure, and widespread EHR adoption—have finally made real-time EHR-to-EDC automation possible. What was once just an industry aspiration is now being actively pulled from both sites and sponsors. The demand is clear, the timing is right, and the clinical research world is finally aligned.

How the Industry Is Ready for Real Change

Chin and Carson of Ignite Data explore how EHR-to-EDC automation is reshaping clinical trials. They discuss site scalability challenges, job satisfaction among clinical research coordinators, and how strong sponsor-site relationships are key to progress. The conversation also highlights IgniteData’s company culture and the broader impact of their technology on the pharmaceutical industry.
