Lorraine Rusch, Ph.D., vice president of business development at Vince & Associates, chaired the first afternoon stream entitled: “Strategy and Mechanics – Sourcing Models, Sponsor/Vendor Relationships and Patient Recruitment.” Rusch, an industry-tenured scientist and clinical research executive, also provided valuable perspectives as a panelist on the subject of “Examining the Evolving Relationships between Pharmaceutical, Biotech, CROs and Venture Capitalists.”
“I felt honored to share our expertise at the CRO/site level as we continue to support our European clients with respect to new paradigms, partnerships and service models,” said Rusch. “We have had a steady presence in Europe having collaborated with many companies over the past decade. This is what motivated Vince & Associates to sponsor this valuable conference and share our expertise and the story of our evolution.”
Dr. Brad Vince, president and medical director of Vince & Associates, stated, “Vince & Associates is able to support European sponsors with the successful recruitment and execution of complex special population protocols from human abuse liability to adaptive trial design in various Phase I patient populations.”
“Vince & Associates will continue to support the Phase I & IIa Clinical Trials Conference as the major sponsor in 2014,” said Rusch.
