Hello everyone,

I’m looking to understand the core clinical research knowledge, technical skills, and areas of expertise that are commonly expected for individuals entering the clinical research field.

Specifically

1)Fundamental clinical research concepts every beginner should know

1. Any tools, software, or documentation skills frequently used

I would be grateful for guidance from professionals or experienced members on what skills to prioritize while preparing for clinical research roles.

Please share your thoughts !
