Halloran Clinical Operations Executive Brunch In Partnership with CSL Behring | Transitioning to a Different Clinical Trial Operating Model: An Insider’s Look

Operating a clinical trial, regardless of the development phase, is reliant upon clinical operations professionals to complete essential tasks, but what if you’re a smaller-sized sponsor and you don’t have those resources in-house? Such sponsors will often outsource their work, design a hybrid model, or work with a Functional Service Provider (FSP) to bring personnel into their organization to move the trial along as development progresses. As a community, we’ve heard all the operating model stories – the good, the bad, and the ugly.

We often hear “we need to change our operating model.” Can you relate? Let’s discuss options and explore opportunities for improvement that are fit for your company.

Please join Halloran and our industry colleagues from CSL Behring on Wednesday, January 25th from 11:00 am – 12:30 pm ET for a discussion on “Transitioning to a Different Clinical Trial Operating Model: An Insider’s Look” to kick off our virtual Halloran-hosted Clinical Operations Brunch series of 2023.

The speakers will share their personal journey, how they arrived at their current decision, issues they experienced during the transition, and lessons learned along the way. Because breakouts will follow this interactive discussion, please bring your questions, ideas, and insights to share with the community.

Our Virtual Brunch will be hosted by:

Biocom California’s “Let’s Talk About: (Female) Life Science CEOs”

Let’s Talk About: I am a Female Life Science CEO

This past March, 24 female biotech CEOs gathered for a retreat in Arizona to foster relationships and discuss ways to sponsor other women in the life science industry. In an effort to continue this discussion, Biocom California has the privilege of featuring a few of these powerhouse CEOs at this event and connecting them with our members.

Only 23 percent of biotech CEOs identify as women, according to a 2021 Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) report. It’s important that our industry comes together to redefine what authentic leadership means and continue to move the needle on diversity in the pursuit of supporting women in the industry. Join us as we take time to celebrate some of our industry’s top leaders in life science while furthering our allyship and confronting the challenges women face in the workplace.

Fierce Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Forum

Diversity has been an increasingly important topic in every industry, and there is a hunger for companies to create initiatives that bring them closer to a more diverse organization. Pharma and biotech are well behind most other industries for diversity and inclusion initiatives.  

Across two days, the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Forum will provide a wide range of strategies and best practices for pharma and biotech companies looking to improve their diversity efforts across all areas of their business, while also providing a deep dive into key areas and access to leaders across functions.

On Tuesday, November 15th, Halloran’s Rashida Challenger will serve as a panelist on “Increasing Diversity in Clinical Trials to Ensure Better Representation and Improve Health Equity.” In their panel session, Rashida and her fellow industry experts will work to understand the patient perspective and identify obstacles to participation, develop targeted outreach to recruit patients in diverse and underserved populations, and leverage new technology and resources to better engage with and monitor patients.

We hope you’ll join us for this engaging event! This webinar is FREE, but registration is required. For more info and to register, please click the “more details” button below.

Carolyn E. Green Scholarship Award Reception

The Carolyn E. Green Scholarship Committee is extremely excited to award scholarships to four recipients in honor of Carolyn E. Green. The recipients consist of both women who are emerging in leadership roles, and those that are firmly established leaders, distinguished by their common goals to build leadership skills and advance their careers as executives in the life sciences. 

To celebrate the transformative power of scholarship, The Carolyn E. Green Life Science Foundation and Halloran are proud to host the Carolyn E. Green Scholarship Award Reception on Tuesday, October 4th beginning at 5:30 p.m. at Halloran’s Boston Headquarters. The reception will unite the scholarship recipients and generous donors, peers, friends, and family. 

The Carolyn E. Green Scholarship was established in memory of Carolyn Green’s leading voice in the life science communities in Pittsburgh, Boston, and beyond. Carolyn was not only an inspiration and a force – but an incredibly loving and talented woman who created waves in the life sciences universe. A mentor, Carolyn taught young women to push limits, have confidence in their contributions, and courage to ask for what they deserve.

Carolyn was a staunch advocate for women’s rights, as well as women in leadership and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). Carolyn was Executive Director, Strategic Investments for Pfizer’s Worldwide Research and Development, where she was responsible for a strategic venture capital fund dedicated to investing in early-state biotechnology companies that align closely with Pfizer’s R&D strategy.

Spanning more than 20 years of operating and investment experience, much of Carolyn’s career was devoted to translating emerging scientific ideas to novel therapies that addressed unmet medical need.

We hope you’ll join us on October 4th to celebrate Carolyn’s pioneering contributions – and to inspire our life sciences leaders of the future.
