Welcome to the SCI-CCTO!

April 18, 2023 - SCI Communications

Welcome to Aja Macias to the new CCTO Clinical Research Trainer role!

This new role was created to help enhance and drive the educational trainings and initiatives at the CCTO. Aja’s work will initially be focused on onboarding training of new staff as well as enhancing the educational training(s) and resources available for all CCTO staff.

Aja will maintain a hybrid schedule to facilitate interaction, learning and collaboration with CCTO staff.

Aja comes to this role from the CCTO Early Drug Development research team where she was a CRC2 for almost 3 years. Aja was not only managing multiple Phase 1 clinical cancer trials but she was involved in training and onboarding new staff. She has a very interesting background in teaching as well.

We are very excited to have this new role at the CCTO and for Aja to be our inaugural trainer!
