WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#DIA2020--DIA, the premier professional global community for healthcare product development, announced its Global Annual Meeting will take place virtually from June 14-18, bringing the life sciences industry together to collaborate, network and advance efforts on its most pressing issues.
For more than 50 years, DIA has provided the world’s largest, neutral stage for regulators and researchers to address healthcare challenges. Recently, thousands of global professionals convened for its ongoing COVID-19 webinar series for insight into topics like conducting clinical trials during the pandemic and data integrity considerations for impacted trials.
