Alex Wang

Director of Clinical Research

 

How long have you been at Regeneris? 2 months

Fun fact? I originally planned to go back school after I left my previous job. However, I changed my direction at last minute and came back to the clinical research. I realized that clinical research is my true passion.

What is your day to day job duties in relation to Regeneris clinical research? I'm the Director of the Clinical Research department. I manage daily clinic operation, supervise research study compliance, monitor the patient data, organize staff training, and make business decisions together with the owner.

How did you become interested in working in clinical research? The reason is simple but powerful. A new drug treatment saved my life when I was in school. The treatment had only been approved by the FDA for 1 year when I started using it. From that point on, I changed my career path from engineering to clinical research.

Why do you think clinical research is so important? First, there would not be a new drug treatment without going through a series of clinical research trials. For existing treatments, clinical research provides important information for doctors and patients to better understand the treatment pros and cons.

What is your favorite part of working in clinical research? I enjoy that it is a well organized and regulated industry. The investigators and researchers are able to conduct research studies on the patients in a relatively healthy and safe environment.

Often times, subjects involved find the answer they're looking for by participating in the studies. Therefore, Clinical Research is then able to provide something new and exciting for many more to look forward to in the future.
