In season two, episode two of Unifying Research, I had the pleasure of sitting down with a research compliance expert and a wonderful patient willing to share her personal story. 

Our research expert this episode is Kate Cohen, a lawyer by training and Chief Compliance Officer at SIU Medicine. With a strong background in research compliance and human subjects protection, Kate helps us break down the silos between compliance, privacy and the role of the IRB.  

Our patient guest this episode is Stephanie Gabriel. Stephanie shares her incredible journey dealing with PMDD, a misunderstood and often misdiagnosed disorder. Struggling from an early age, Stephanie never stopped looking for answers, which led to a research opportunity that ultimately changed the course of her life.
