About Us
We are building a next-generation clinical trials network that transforms community pharmacies into high-performing clinical trial sites. Our model expands patient access, accelerates enrollment, and enables sponsors to run efficient, decentralized and hybrid trials.
As we activate pharmacy sites nationwide, we are seeking experienced Principal Investigators (PIs) to support study start-up, regulatory submissions, and trial oversight on a non-full-time, per-study basis.

Key Responsibilities
- Serve as Principal Investigator of record for assigned pharmacy-based clinical trials
- Participate in pre-award study activities, including protocol review, feasibility assessments, and initial study applications and regulatory submissions (e.g., IRB, sponsor, FDA as applicable)
- Provide medical and scientific input during sponsor and CRO site selection and feasibility reviews
- Support development and execution of regulatory-ready site documentation prior to trial award
- Oversee trial conduct post-award, ensuring compliance with ICH-GCP, FDA regulations, and sponsor requirements
- Provide ongoing medical oversight and safety supervision throughout the study lifecycle
- Collaborate with pharmacists, study coordinators, sponsors, and CRO partners to ensure protocol adherence and data integrity
- Participate in investigator meetings and study-related reviews (primarily virtual; on-site as needed)
- Contribute to continuous improvement of pharmacy-embedded clinical research workflows
Qualifications
