I worked for 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry and its outsourcing. Holder of a Ph.D. In toxicology, I spent 15 years in the French group sanofi-aventis, in the Paris region, at the head of an Exploratory Toxicology group. Initially formed by a team of three people, this group has grown steadily over the years to include in 2005 four separate teams for a total of 15 people. I worked then for 4 years for the American company Covance, as study director in genotoxicity for one year, and then as the head of the in vivo toxicology department, which included four laboratories with more than thirty people (Formulation, Animal welfare, Toxicity and Genotoxicity Operations). I have been trained as clinical project manager at Clinact, which allows me to position myself also in positions of junior clinical project manager. My strengths are my experience in management, my skills in scientific research, my communication skills and my knowledge of the development of the drug, whether in the pharmaceutical industry or its outsourcing (CRO), but also at the clinical level. I also practice the study direction and the project management. I am currently preclinical project manager at PPRS-Research located in Colmar, France (68).
