Chat Notes from HM
not a lab-based role
will be a coordinator and the document writer for all of the validation, method validation, the transfer document and the report authoring.
top skill it would be quality control lab experience first thing. Second thing is the analytical separation method background. Third thing is method validation to transfer experience.
So basically, a typical day where we'll be drafting a document and have the meeting with the stakeholder just to align what need to be written in the document and Align about what's the content they agree or because the document the person going to issue will be the actual validation protocol. The report needs a lot of inputs from other people, so this person must be having a very good communication.
Biofarm chemistry with the experience with all of the biologics, basically like map or ADC experience will be very helpful.
