I have an excellent knowledge of the legal environment of drug development, a good understanding of the needs of small biotech start-ups as well as of large pharma companies. I also know what services are expected to be delivered by contract research organisations to their clients. I work independently on a home-office basis or as integral part of a team at my clients´ premises. I am a member of EMWA and DGPharMed (German Association for Pharmaceutical Medicine) and regularly attend courses to refresh and expand my professional skills. I am actively involved in animal protection and nature conservation projects.
