Background

About Shelly Ramirez

As Director of Site Operations at the HVTN/CoVPN Leadership Operations Center, I provide oversight of clinical trial management, site support of the global network activities and managerial supervision to Site Operations Staff. I regularly interact with leadership and investigators at all levels within the Network, including the Leadership Operations Center, Statistical Data Management Center, Laboratory Center, Division of AIDS (DAIDS), Clinical Research Sites, Developers and others on matters concerning clinical trial conduct. I ensure the efficient and effective implementation of HIV vaccine/other research protocols, from protocol development through long-term follow-up. This includes effective project management, communicating effectively with diverse stakeholders across the world, production of training and study specific procedure materials, developing and driving timelines and adjusting expectations as necessary.
