And folks start clinical trials for a variety of reasons.” (05:43) (Ed)“Out of academia we see a lot of this very little information filed into an IND, and then very little information generated up to the point where you get to a Phase Two or Three where you see efficacy data and then suddenly you have to file an NDA.” “It’s hard to become an expert. There’s no real training. I think a lot of it is just experience. It’s going into meetings with FDA when you don’t have all the data.”“Make sure it looks good, because it does reflect on the actual data and content in there, just like anything in life.” “As the author goes through the process with the client, there’s still another piece. And that’s the publishing group.” “One way to alleviate that [stress] is to be able to give an update on any given subject or any given section at any given time.” Relevant LinksDesign Space InPharmatics - LinkedInDesign Space InPharmatics - TwitterEdward Narke on LinkedInBrian Lihou on LinkedInMeranda Parascandola on LinkedIn
