Regulatory and Standards Compliance: My certifications in Clinical Studies Design, Medical Writing, Medical Affairs for Modern Pharma, Clinical Evaluation for Medical Devices, and Biostatistics ensure adherence to the highest academic and ethical standards in all written materials. What sets me apart is my unique combination of deep scientific knowledge as a researcher in molecular biology, combined with practical industry experience, including leadership roles such as Global Clinical & Medical Affairs Director, in both pharmaceutical and medical device settings. My work has resulted in 30+ publications where I was recognized as a medical writer and articles' co-author, though I have ghostwritten significantly more manuscripts throughout my career—a testament to the volume and quality of my scientific writing output. These are my core expertise: Clinical/Scientific paper writing • Study protocol development • Statistical data interpretation • Scientific manuscript editing • Regulatory writing/editing • Cross-functional team leadership • Multi-cultural project management • Medical Affairs • Clinical Affairs • Scientific Communication • Grant Writing • Continuing Medical education • Slides deck for meetings presentations • Posters • Abstracts • Advisory Boards My professional profile: My areas of expertise include plastic surgery, medical devices, aesthetic medicine, oncology, breast cancer and women's health, molecular biology, orthopedics, immunology, cardiovascular medicine, metabolic disorders, pharmaceutical development, clinical animal nutrition, veterinary medicine, metabolomics, lipidomics, and nutraceutical management. I can provide end-to-end clinical publication support, from study protocol development and data analysis to manuscript writing and editing, journal selection and submission, and peer review management. Education: Classical Studies Diploma; Master of Science in Biology; Professional Biologist Qualification; Master's Degree in Animal Nutrition; Second-Level Master's Degree in Animal Clinical Nutrition.
