As its new president, I will continue the conversation to ensure a sustainable future for clinical research sites. I am excited to assume this new role and work with our exceptionally talented senior leadership team to execute initiatives centered on industry-wide collaboration.” Allyson Small, SCRS’ vice president of operations, commented: “Casey was hand-picked by Christine for this leadership role over a year ago, and I am thrilled to see it come to fruition.
