Does SEND include any skeuomorphs? Okay, strange word I know – stay with me….. Why does my phone make the sound of shutter when I take a photo? It doesn’t have a shutter, and even if it did, I wouldn’t be able to control its volume level. Yet, I hear that satisfying old school shutter …

Is the world of SEND moving too fast?
Well, March 2021 turned out to be a big month in the world of SEND. The FDA issued their 90-day notice for the enforcement of the Technical Rejection Criteria (TRC) for Study Data. This means that the FDA will begin rejecting studies that don’t meet the criteria effective September 15, 2021. We also had a …
Beyond Compliance?
Beyond /bɪˈjɒnd/ Preposition “more extensive or extreme than; further-reaching than.” This week I have been writing the abstract for my talk at this year’s SOT meeting. Even though the event is again virtual, as you may have guessed by now, I’ll take any opportunity to inflict my opinions about SEND on anyone who’ll show up …
ADA & SEND: I’m conflicted
In the last CDISC SEND Core Team meeting, we got to discussing Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) data, and its representation in SEND.

The DART pilot is getting ready to fly
It’s here. It’s finally here. It’s actually real. This is going to happen. This is part 1 of a 2 part mini-series, hang in there… I’m referring to the FDA Federal Register Notice for the pilot of SENDIG-DART (that’s SEND for Reproductive Tox). It’s a new SEND standard, and the FDA are going to run …
SEND: Why did they have to make it so damn hard?!
In my previous blog, I recalled the tale of my first experience with SEND. I’d assumed that standardizing nonclinical data would be straightforward, after all we have standard glossaries and lexicons from the likes of INHAND, and isn’t one 28-day study pretty much like another? Yet, this SEND thing seemed so alien and impenetrable to …
