​Date: October 15, 2026
When: 9:00 – 18:00 CEST
Location: Espai Diagonal, Barcelona
Format: In-person

​Admission:

​The End has no ticket fee. In place of one, we ask every attendee for a philanthropic contribution to Hospital Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona. As a nonprofit research hospital, every euro supports breakthrough research and helps families and children fighting disease.

• ​Behind every trial is a family waiting for answers, a child fighting to grow, laugh and play.

• ​We suggest a gift of €150. The minimum contribution is €25, and you're welcome to give more.

• ​Register for the event here, then donate separately through Hospital Sant Joan de Déu.

​Agenda:

​One day at the intersection of clinical research and AI. The program is taking shape around a series of keynotes, panels, and a live debate. Topics include:

• ​AI and the future of scientific judgement

• ​Partners of platforms - the next CRO operating model

• ​AI governance and accountability: what regulators will accept, and who answers for it

• ​AI in trials: signal vs. hype

• ​Protocols as data - the war on protocol complexity

• ​The Debate: is the randomized controlled trial still the gold standard?

• ​Where trials actually die: the recruitment reality

• ​The human cost of slow medicine

​Full agenda and speakers announced soon.
