How about a career in Clinical Research ?

If you are one of the aspiring youngsters working towards a career in Clinical Research please read on.
To become an expert in research it will take several years and has several specializations, so I suggest a more pragmatic approach to building your career path. First explore the landscape with a short course or by talking to a friend who is already working in this field. The biggest market for jobs in clinical research continue to be overseas, and India is now emerging a key destination for both business process outsourcing and knowledge process outsourcing in this domain.

  3. CDM has a "lot" of jobs, but to clarify this domain is not just for life sciences graduates but is relevant to both computer science and actually any computer literate candidate. You can specialize in CRF design, data validation, data extraction and data warehousing. Please do a google on CDM training there are a lot of centers that offer training.

    At clinnovo we offer a 6 week program that covers all aspects of clinical research, CDM and SAS - contact at satish@clinnovo.com
