As we look forward, it is important that we bring in the right people who can help accelerate our growth. This is why I am delighted to announce Amanda Buckley as the newest member of our executive team.”

In her role as Teckro COO, Amanda will work with Gary and the senior leadership team to scale world-class operations.

The research, conducted by the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development (CSDD) in collaboration with Teckro, gathered responses from 228 investigative site staff on how and when they interact with the clinical trial protocol. The findings are published in a new report: Tufts CSDD - Teckro 2020 Study on Investigative Site Protocol Administration Referencing Practices . Read the press release for more details.
