What is your interest in clinical trials?
• Improving site operational efficiency to shorten the timelines of trial conduct
Why do you think clinical trials are important?
• Clinical trials provide a way to explore the most effective means to prevent, diagnose and treat human health outcomes.
What is your personal philosophy about clinical trial training specifically or mentorship in general?
• Guidance from mentors greatly enhances skill development and professional competency.
FUN FACT: When I was a research trainee myself several years ago, I benefited from the career and professional development training opportunities from The Desjardins Centre for Advanced Training of the RI-MUHC. These opportunities shaped my way to a fulfilling career. It is now my turn to play the role of a mentor and connect with trainees.
