Areas of Practice

Project study monitoring of Developmental and Reproductive Toxicology (DART) (eg, Embryo-Fetal Development [EFD], Fertility and Early Embryonic Development [FEED], Pre- and Postnatal Development [PPND]) and General Toxicology studies conducted at CROs:

  • Input on study design and protocol

  • Overseeing in-life and post-life phases of the study.

  • Data review, report review from draft to finalization and Common Technical Document (CTDs).

  • Site visits (as needed) for inspection of in-life processes ensuring compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) regulations (as appropriate), animal welfare standards, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

  • Collaboration with CRO Study Directors to evaluate and interpret study results and maintain established timelines.

  • Assist with evaluating DART technical capabilities for onboarding of new CROs.
