In this issue we look ahead to the future of clinical research as the environment continues to evolve following the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, we cover key elements of the current timetable for medical devices businesses in Great Britain as they adjust to Brexit, the divergence of GB and EU law and different legal regimes applying in GB and Northern Ireland.

Finally, the latest entries to our Life Sciences Legal A to Z give an overview of patents for second medical uses, when an order for specific performance is appropriate, and some of the factors to consider when entering into supply agreements.
