Dr Lauren Boak
Clinical pharmacology science specialist
Roche Pharmaceuticals, UK
PhD 2007
After completing my PhD, and publishing three manuscripts in highly regarded international journals, I undertook a one-year industry postdoctoral position in the clinical pharmacology department at Hoffmann La-Roche, Switzerland.
Following my Swiss studies, I moved to Roche UK to work as a clinical pharmacology science specialist. At Roche, I participate in the design, management and evaluation of phase I and II studies and contribute to the clinical development of multiple compounds from a wide range of disease areas. I'm really keen to gain more experience in the early development of new drugs and to progress my career as a clinical pharmacologist.
