• Ensure research outputs are suitable for regulatory submissions, responses, and post-marketing commitments.
• Uphold best practices in study conduct, reporting, and Good Pharmacoepidemiology Practices (GPP).

• Apply advanced epidemiologic methods across study types such as PASS, drug safety monitoring and pharmacovigilance, comparative effectiveness research, HEOR, disease surveillance and signal detection.
• Collaborate closely with analytics and data science teams to review results, assess robustness, and interpret findings.
• Leverage or interpret outputs from surveillance and signal detection tools, including Tree Scan, where applicable.
• Stay current with evolving regulatory guidance, observational research methods, and industry standards, including expectations for pregnancy safety evaluation.

• Serve as a primary research point of contact for customers, including life sciences partners and regulatory-focused stakeholders.
