Bio-Images Research appoints director of regulatory affairs

Clinical research firm Bio-Images Research has appointed a director of regulatory affairs.

Dr Sarah Connolly, who has been with the Glasgow-based company for the past four years, will take responsibility for GMP, regulatory and ethical approvals.

The appointment is designed to maintain the highest level of ethical and regulatory standards as the company's pipeline of clinical studies steadily increases.

Bio-Images has completed three clinical studies this year and claims to be in the forefront of a small field of providers of gamma scintigraphy imaging services, which allow multi-national pharma companies to outsource some of their clinical research.

Dr Connolly joined the company after completing her PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Strathclyde in 2007.
