This is a bit of an origin story about how my career and clinical research first got started. It all began because of networking. I would never have found out about it, if it wasn't for one of my friends who was involved in the clinical trial industry. Most of the time it is networking that gets your foot in the door to clinical research especially as it gets more and more competitive. What do you all think?

This video is about the CRO (Contract Research Organization) being sold to Pamplona Capital Management at the end of 2017. Parexel is one of my colleagues favorite CRO's because of their management style, but we knew something was up when they started laying off a bunch of CMA's (clinical monitoring associate's) and effectively deleting the position from their repertoire.
