Beth Corbin-Hsi, RN, CCRN
Co-Founder of Albuquerque Clinical Trials and Clinical Trials Administrator
Prior to the founding of
Albuquerque Clinical Trials (ACT) Beth helped her husband, Dr. Steven
Hsi, build Rio Grande Family Medicine, the private outpatient clinic
affiliated with ACT. She has over 20 years experience in the clinical
trials industry, first as a study coordinator and then as
administrator.
"Within the next 5 years it is projected that there will be a severe
shortage of experienced clinical investigative sites. There has been an
explosion in the number of compounds coming down drug pipelines. The
pressure to quickly bring drugs to market will be tremendous. With
increased demand for sites to carry out research it will be more
difficult to ensure the quality and ethical conduct of pharmaceutical
trials." Beth is focused on preparing ACT to meet the challenges posed
by the dramatic growth in the pharmaceutical industry.
"The real trick will be to meet market demands while never losing sight
of our goal which is to apply the highest clinical standards to the
discovery of safe and effective medications."
