Validating Shiny Apps in Regulated Environments From R/Medicine 2025 Shiny apps are increasingly used to deliver interactive tools in clinical and healthcare settings. But when these tools are used in regulated environments, validation becomes essential. How can we ensure that our Shiny apps are trustworthy, without stifling innovation? In this talk we’ll explore practical approaches to validating Shiny applications in regulated contexts, drawing on principles from software engineering, quality assurance, and risk based validation. We’ll discuss key challenges like traceability, documentation, and versioning, as well as share techniques for building apps that are easier to validate from the start. I’ll highlight some of the tools and packages used in Jumping Rivers that can support validation workflows that satisfies both internal reviewers and external regulators, including the Litmusverse, a suite of R packages designed to assess code quality and generate validation evidence. By the end of the session, you’ll understand: - Why validation is critical for Shiny... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebIk2fxFUfI
