iJOBS Workshop: Clinical Trials Study Design
Professional Development
Event Description
PhD scientists who move from academia to industry have very little prior knowledge of how clinical trials are conducted, yet clinical trials are the basis of how companies evaluate the safety, efficacy, and therapeutic value of new medical interventions. In this workshop we learn the details of clinical trial planning from small Phase I safety and dosage assessments in humans to large-scale Phase III randomized comparative trials and post-approval Phase IV monitoring all while adhering to strict ethical protocols, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, and regulatory oversight. The presenter will be Avantika Barve, PhD, Global Head Clinical Representativeness, Novartis.

iJOBS Site Visit: Abbott
Professional Development
Event Description
Abbott is a global healthcare company whose research and development encompasses cardiovascular health, diabetes and glucose monitoring, diagnostic testing, neuromodulation, and nutrition. The Princeton operation is associated especially with point-of-care diagnostics—developing technologies that allow clinicians to obtain laboratory-quality diagnostic information rapidly, at or near the patient rather than relying exclusively on a centralized laboratory. This area sits at the intersection of biology, chemistry, engineering, clinical medicine, and product development. Join us to visit Abbott’s space in Princeton to meet current scientists, tour the facilities and learn about working for the company.
