National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA)Established the five-member Institutional Review Board with its governance, quorum, SOPs, policies and workflows. Chairs ethics, risk–benefit, confidentiality and approval reviews, and oversees post-approval amendments, deviations, reports, serious adverse events, conflicts of interest and study closure.
Directs ten concurrent clinical trials and prospective and retrospective studies, managing budgets, timelines and close-out. Leads clinical and business research development, cross-functional operations, study quality and safety, and IRB, GCP and SOP compliance. Built three apps that modernised data collection, cutting workload by 40% and reaching 98% patient follow-up.
Runs several courses a semester, from curriculum and instruction to assessment, grading and academic support. Developed 100+ competency-based assessments that lifted performance by 15% through targeted feedback, reaches 90% real-time engagement with Moodle, live polling and interactive learning, and teaches responsible, course-relevant uses of AI.
Spearheaded multiple research studies, securing USD 13,000 in grant funding; directed large-scale observational research on 364,627 patient records; mentored researchers in study design, methodology and analysis.
Daily interdisciplinary rounds for about 60 inpatients, 30 medication queries resolved within an average of 15 minutes, and drug utilisation evaluation reports for the care team.
1,000 practice hours across hospital and community settings, verifying 20–30 prescriptions a day.
Observational data organised the way a randomised trial would be: explicit eligibility criteria, treatment strategies assigned at a single time zero, and follow-up counted from that point. Aligning eligibility, assignment and time zero removes immortal-time and prevalent-user bias before any model is fitted.
