Rawn Achieves Professional Research Certification
Susan Rawn, RN, BSN, Clinical Research Coordinator, Surgery, recently earned professional certification through the Society of Clinical Research Associates (SoCRA) and is now a Certified Clinical Research Professional (CCRP). The certification program was established by SoCRA to create an internationally accepted level of knowledge, education and experience by which research professionals will be recognized by the medical research community. Certified research professionals come from a variety of occupations, including physicians, nurses, medical technologists, business administrators, health information managers and professors.
Rawn began working in clinical research in 2001 at the University of Kentucky and joined the UT Graduate School of Medicine in September 2009. In her position, she supports investigative projects, typically sponsored projects involving investigative devices; however, she also works with faculty and residents on investigator-initiated projects. She is currently working with Dr. Scott Stevens and the UT Aorta Center on two FDA-approved studies using investigational aortic stent grafts.
