Note to File is a podcast for the clinical research community - featuring interviews, candid commentary, and general tomfoolery from Brad Hightower and Denali Rose.

The podcast was born with the hope of providing a platform for research professionals to share their stories, tackle real challenges, and offer some practical advice for the clinical research community - assuming we manage to stay on track.
