• Serve as the primary liaison for investigators participating in investigator-sponsored trials.
• Generate insights from local registries and other valuable data sources.
• Support local tactical activities, such as covering scientific presentations or working with contracted local consultants.
• Conduct market landscape assessments and competitive intelligence, including monitoring therapeutic trends, unmet needs, and emerging scientific information.
