Eighteen-years as a Regional CRA utilizing a variety of therapies, my most recent project was a Cardiac Hemostasis Device, prior to that was an Oncology (RCC), prior to that was Oncology and another Cardiac Device. Some of these recent studies utilized bone-marrow acquired isolated proteins for oncology and cardiac stem-cells for patients with a recent MI and damaged myocardium. I have a great knowledge and familiarity in ICH/GCP Guidelines. I have nine-year’s experience utilizing EDC and CTMS applications such as TEMPO, DataTrak, SAP, eLinks, SFE, Impact, Medidata Rave, Inform, Oracle and Oasis.
