Over the last two decades, the landscape of clinical research has transformed dramatically with increased staffing needs, largely due to the dynamic nature of the field and escalating regulatory demands. Many clinical research stakeholders have developed workforce programs to address challenges in hiring, recruitment, education, and maintenance of a skilled research team, ultimately enhancing the caliber of clinical research. Opportunities to attract top-tier clinical research personnel are abundant in unconventional environments. Members of this panel will recount the unique paths they traveled along from atypical professions to their current roles in clinical research.
