1. “”This will significantly add to the goal of defining actionable reference ranges of commonly used laboratory values in neonates and the development of a natural history model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia,” indicated C-Path’s Chief Science Officer and project Co-Principal Investigator Klaus Romero, M.D., M.S., F.C.P.” 

2. “TUCSON, Ariz., May 12, 2021 — Critical Path Institute (C-Path) and Tufts Medical Center have announced a joint venture to integrate the first patient-level clinical trial data to generate actionable real-world evidence (RWE) for neonatal drug development, from real-world neonate data (RWD).” 

3. “”I’m extremely proud of both team’s efforts to move swiftly to integrate data, increase our understanding of neonates and improve drug development for this underserved population,” said INC Executive Director Kanwaljit Singh, M.D., M.P.H. “Dr. Jonathan Davis was key in this collaboration and we thank him for all he’s done to move this project forward quickly.”” 

4. “”I am privileged to work with this exceptional team of clinical and data scientists at C-Path that will make real advances in neonatology,” said Jonathan Davis, M.D., Chief of Newborn Medicine, Associate Director of the Tufts Clinical and Translational Science Institute at Tufts Children’s Hospital, and Co-Principal Investigator.” 

5. “C-Path’s DCC will develop the Real-World Data and Analytics Platform (RW-DAP) as an integrated database and analytics hub designed to be used in generating actionable RWE that can be leveraged to inform drug development in areas where RWD can play a relevant role.”
