This week on the Life Science Success Podcast my guest is Cristina Varner.  Cristina is the National Life Science and Digital Health & Telemedicine Practice Leader for Newfront.  She supports the risk management needs of biotech, medical device, pharmaceutical, diagnostic, digital health and telemedicine companies from early stage on up.

Introduction

 

01:10 Tell listeners a little bit about yourself.

05:47 And then what made you transition, to Newfront?

08:06 Tell me a little bit more about sort of, what do products look like and things like that from the New Front for life science companies?

10:13 How do you normally get engaged then? Normally, the company that is recruiting patients or the actual company that's running the clinical trial? 

11:49 To think about the different phases of clinical trials. Are you involved only whenever they get to human clinical trials, I'm assuming that's primarily where your involvement starts?

14:37 So if you are not venture-backed, do you have anybody that involves that, then involves your company? And then if so, how do they get kind of tied in, with Newfront?

15:39 What are some of the biggest challenges that you face at Newfront?

17:48 And where do you see some of the biggest opportunities?

20:53 There are some questions that I like to ask every guest.

-What Inspires you?

22:11 -What concerns you?
