Scientific Development
CIRG has a Scientific Development department responsible for coordinating all aspects related to the development of a new investigational drug or concept.
The role begins with internal discussions on drug development strategies first with the researchers and scientists of whom BCIRG is aligned, followed by discussions with potential sponsors from industry. The proposals submitted to sponsors are prepared by the Scientific Development together with the Chief Medical Officer.
The department coordinates the development of all protocols, including writing the draft protocols, network development, clinical trial development plans and reviewing all scientific documents prepared by the Scientific Divisions. The Director works closely with the Chief Medical Officer of CIRG, with the Clinical Team, the Scientific Committee, Industry, Independent Data Monitoring Committees (IDMC) and the Investigators. Scientific Development also organizes the activities outlined by the Scientific Committee.
