How Do Research Clinics Get Paid in Clinical Trials? Dan Sfera explains

I asked Dan Sfera of South Coast Clinical Trials in California, how his clinical trial business gets paid by the pharmaceutical companies (the process)and also discussed his father Adonis Sfera when I discovered his name as a Principal Investigator (PI)for the antipychotic Latuda (one of many study locations) study for Bipolar 1 Depression--and then again in Dollars for Docs database.

Dan was nice enough to answer my questions and then go ahead and make a video response answering all of the topics. It's another facet to the pharmaceutical industry that people can learn about, as part of knowing how their medications were approved, from start to finish and the players involved along the way.



Here's Dollars for Docs database.Dan explains how the research money from Cephalon is used in the video.

Thanks for answering my exciting questions, Dan!
