Background

About Aparna Mankar

I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Regulatory Affairs at Northeastern University in Boston, focusing on regulatory affairs in the medicinal devices field. In my first quarter, I achieved a 4.0 GPA, studying courses such as Introduction to the USFDA in Drug and Biologics, Regulatory Strategy for Product Development and Life-Cycle Management, and Regulatory Compliance Practice. Transitioning from a role at LabCorp Drug Development, where I worked for 3 years, I chose to pursue regulatory affairs to further contribute to the healthcare industry. My background in pharmacy, chosen as my major in high school, laid the foundation for my career path. In my previous role as a Safety Science Analyst, and later as a Junior Safety Data Analyst at LabCorp Drug Development, I focused on Post-Marketing Surveillance of the Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccine. This involved tracking adverse events and collecting data for regulatory submissions to authorities such as the USFDA, EMEA, and KDCA. My attention to detail and performance in this role led to opportunities to address litigation cases related to Johnson and Johnson Baby Powder. Additionally, I served as an Intake Officer on the Amgen Biopharmaceutical project. As I near the completion of my master's degree, I am eager to explore new opportunities in the regulatory industry. I am known for my innovative thinking, enthusiasm, and versatility, enabling me to work effectively under pressure while maintaining attention to detail. I thrive in team environments and am driven to succeed and develop both professionally and personally. I am seeking a role in regulatory affairs that will allow me to contribute significantly to a forward-thinking company, while also maintaining a balanced lifestyle.
