Biomarker scientist with 10+ years supporting clinical trials

Profile Summary

I have extensive experience developing preclinical biomarker assays on a variety of assay platforms and managing their execution during early stage clinical trials. I have co-ordinated patient sample tracking and submission to various external vendors and managed communication with these vendors. I have experience with biomarker data analysis and presentation including data types such as mutation, ctDNA, nanostring, ELISA, ddPCR, MSD and protein simple. I have published extensively in the field of biomarker development.
