ADVANCED SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR SECURITY...

This book aims to highlight the gaps and the transparency issues in the clinical research and
trials processes and how there is a lack of information flowing back to researchers and
patients involved in those trials. Lack of data transparency is an underlying theme within the
clinical research world and causes issues of corruption  fraud  errors and a problem of
reproducibility. Blockchain can prove to be a method to ensure a much more joined up and
integrated approach to data sharing and improving patient outcomes. Surveys undertaken by
creditable organisations in the healthcare industry are analysed in this book that show strong
support for using blockchain technology regarding strengthening data security  interoperability
and a range of beneficial use cases where mostly all respondents of the surveys believe
blockchain will be important for the future of the healthcare industry. Another aspect
considered in the book is the coming surge of healthcare wearables using Internet of Things
(IoT) and the prediction that the current capacity of centralised networks will not cope with
the demands of data storage. The benefits are great for clinical research  but will add more
pressure to the transparency of clinical trials and how this is managed unless a secure
mechanism like  blockchain is used.
