I’m Adam Walker a Biometrics consultant, and this is the Pharma Prescribed Podcast—where leaders, innovators, and hidden voices in healthcare open up. No soundbites. No spin. Just raw insight—one prescription at a time.
In an industry driven by data, protocols, and pressure, we rarely pause to ask the human questions: What drives us? What breaks us? And what truths live behind the titles we wear?
Steven Thompson is someone who has spent more than two decades reshaping how clinical research actually gets done. He is the Founder of NexTrial.ai, and a leading voice at the intersection of AI, trial activation, and human centred design in healthcare.
Across roles at ADM, NuBank, Takeda, and Biogen, Steven built a reputation for transforming complex, slow, legacy processes into streamlined systems that empower the people doing the work. His philosophy is simple but radical: AI shouldn’t replace humans - it should erase the maze that holds them back.
At NexTrial.ai, he’s pioneering Trial Activation & Execution Intelligence that delivers zero rejection packets, faster startup, stronger compliance and a future where coordinators, physicians, and teams can operate at their highest capability.
Steven brings clarity, courage, and a builder’s mindset to every conversation.
