  • Work closely with Clinical Imaging Operations and Clinical Trial Management to ensure the delivery of high-quality imaging data in clinical studies. This includes drafting imaging manuals and other documents for the trial, supporting the clinical team during the study start-up phase, and monitoring data integrity throughout the trial.
  • Supervise imaging Clinical Research Organizations (CROs) to ensure execution of imaging components in the trial, timely address any image quality issues, and ensure flawless delivery of key study imaging data and achievements
  • Identify gaps in imaging assessments for particular indications and propose novel biomarkers, and spearhead validation through collaboration with other functions within Regeneron or external institutions.
  • Support regulatory submission packages as the imaging subject matter expert

This role requires that you:
