Background

About Robert Tavcar

I am a Board Certified Toxicologist with 30+ years of contract research experience in pre-clinical and clinical drug development. I originally started my career in the field of infusion toxicology for approximately 14 years while concurrently helping develop the cardiovascular services group and completing my education. I then transferred into the ADME drug metabolism group for 1 year before moving to the field of clinical drug development for 5 years where I worked in support of Phase I and bioequivalence studies. For the last 10 years I have continued to develop my skills as a toxicologist progressing from senior scientist (study director) to director and finally senior director of toxicology responsible for the study director group (total of 12 study directors) covering general, infusion, dermal and DART services as well as the Pharmacology (TK/PK) and statistics group. I have additionally, with the growth of the company and demand have become more involved in supporting the business development group working closely with Sponsors to develop and guide them through the drug development and regulatory process. Working in the service division of drug development I also have a good understanding of working with Sponsors and Regulators in a complimentary fashion for both small and large molecules with multiple routes.
