Clinical Research Pharmacy

Y. CEYLA CUBUKCU, RPh

To whom it may concern:

I am a New York and New Jersey Board certified pharmacist. I have extensive experience in clinical research for over 10 years, first as a "Clinical Research Specialist" at PPD, followed by my position as a "Clinical Scientist" at Merck. Attached is my resume for your review. As a pharmacist, I believe in close relationships with patients and giving them the personal touch that they need.

My experience as a pharmacist and clinical scientist along with my personnel skills make me a very good fit for this position.

Thank you for your time,
