Where are you located? What geographical region(s) do you cover? 
I am based in Shanghai, China, supporting clinical research sites across Shanghai, Zhejiang, Sichuan, and Shandong 

How long have you been working in the area of clinical research? 
I have worked in clinical research for more than six years and have had the opportunity to collaborate with investigators, study teams and healthcare professionals across a variety of sites, therapeutic areas and clinical trial phases. 

What is the best part of your job? 
What I enjoy the most about my role is the opportunity to work closely with investigators and site teams to help clinical trials run smoothly. Building strong relationships and maintaining open communication are important parts of my work, and I find it rewarding to collaborate with teams who share the same commitment to quality and patient care. At Fortrea, I value our focus on delivering high-quality clinical trials, and I take pride in knowing that our dedication, attention to detail and sense of responsibility help studies progress in a compliant and efficient manner. Ultimately, these efforts contribute to the development of new therapies that may provide additional treatment options for patients in the future. 

What has been interesting about your work in clinical research? Did anything surprise you about the patient population? 
One of the most interesting aspects of clinical research has been seeing how awareness of clinical trials continues to grow among patients. Over the years, I have met many participants who actively choose to take part in studies because they hope to access new treatment options and contribute to medical progress. Their commitment and willingness to follow study requirements leave a lasting impression. I am also continually inspired by the dedication of investigators, medical staff and site teams, who consistently prioritize patient safety while working closely together to ensure studies are conducted according to protocol. These collaborations highlight the collective effort required to bring clinical research to life. 

What are you most proud of in your work? 
I am proud to support high-quality trial execution across a diverse range of sites, study phases and therapeutic areas. Clinical research requires careful oversight, problem-solving and continuous collaboration, and I take great satisfaction in helping teams overcome challenges and maintain study quality. Every issue resolved, every milestone achieved and every process improved contributes to protecting participant safety and maintaining the integrity of the research. 
I’m continually motivated by the purpose behind the work we do every day. Clinical research is about much more than processes and data - it’s about helping advance medical knowledge, supporting the development of innovative treatments and ultimately making a difference for patients. Knowing that my work contributes to that larger goal is what makes this career so meaningful and rewarding.
