@lucynavsaria
Experienced clinical research professional specializing in oncology trials and claims data analysis.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a physician-scientist with an MD and an MPH and over five years of experience in oncology clinical research, including direct work as a Clinical Research Associate on phase II–III lymphoma trials.
I led a multi-study cancer epidemiology program using large U.S. claims datasets and designed statistical analyses in SAS and STATA, producing 8 first-author manuscripts and 15+ total publications while presenting at national and international conferences.
My hands-on clinical trial experience includes routine and interim monitoring, source data verification with 100% accuracy, site initiation and close-out visits, adverse event reporting, and regulatory submissions under ICH-GCP, FDA, and IRB standards. I am proficient with EDC systems including EPIC and REDCap.
I seek to continue advancing oncology research by leading rigorous trials, applying large-claims and clinical data to answer practice-changing questions, mentoring junior researchers, and maintaining audit-ready regulatory compliance as I pursue ACRP CCRA® certification.
