Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are increasingly being used across clinical trial workflows for note drafting, protocol summarization, communication support, document review, and operational assistance. However, many clinical research professionals remain uncertain about how HIPAA, confidentiality obligations, sponsor agreements, and privacy expectations apply when using these technologies in daily research activities.

This session provides a practical discussion of common AI-use scenarios encountered across sites, contract research organizations, sponsors, and institutional review boards. Through real-world examples and interactive audience discussion, attendees will explore where privacy and confidentiality risks may emerge and how to recognize operational red flags before inappropriate disclosure occurs, helping them build safer habits for AI use within clinical research environments.
