CRA or CDM or Pharmacovigilance
Hi,
I am Upamanyu Modak. I am studying M.S. in Clinical Research. My course will end on August, 2012. I am B.Pharm as well.
I am searching jobs equivalent to my academics and areas of interests. I want to draw your attention in some queries:
1. Among CRA, CDM and Pharmacovigilance which will be better for me?
2. I am a fresher. Which of the above options will be suitable for a fresher?
Please guide me to get the correct path of career.
I heard from my seniors that CR and PV are almost dead in India, please bring some light on this, I am a fresher and want to make my career in CR.

Thank you for your advice.
Hi,
1. It depends on your interest whether to join in CRA/CDM/PV. But there is good growth in PV if you have masters especially in pharmacology. In Both CRA and CDM there is good steady growth for peron from B.Pharm, M.Sc CR
2. Almost in all fields whether CRA/CDM/PV, anything is suitable for freshers. All mentioned fileds are inviting freshers. But you ll have best chances to join in CRA/CDM.
Feel free to post for more queries.
