Partner closely with Clinical Operations, Clinical Development, Translational Medicine, Biometrics, Data Management, Regulatory Affairs, and external vendors.
Support study startup activities, including review of laboratory manuals, sample collection procedures, laboratory specifications, and sample flow requirements.
Review study protocols and schedules of assessments to ensure biosample collection and testing requirements are operationally feasible and clearly defined.
Contribute to the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of biosample management processes, tools, and SOPs.
