New GDM Tools Improve Trial Quality and Manageability
ARM 8 software will make you more
efficient and effective in managing your research studies. It can
improve research quality, and reduce the time required to report
results. With over 4 years in the making, ARM 8 has a clean new
visual style that is much friendlier for an infrequent user. It
includes a multitude of new features and improvements relative to
ARM 7. Someone familiar with ARM 7 will be immediately productive,
since all ARM 7 commands and ways of working are fully supported in
ARM 8. Enhanced
