In this episode of Catawba In Focus, we head over to visit Tom Filipczak – managing director and partner at Destum Partners. Tom chats with Zaidoon about industry deals during a global pandemic and what that looks like on the 505(b)(2) side of things. We also swing by "the shop" to talk with Billy the mechanic about overhauling Catawba Research's famous red truck – Uma. While the classic Chevrolet Apache is getting some improvements and upgrades, it's still the same vehicle...much like that of a 505(b)(2)! Hop in and join us.

On this episode of Catawba Talks, we sit down to discuss the intricacies of study start-ups with Catawba Research's Clinical Project Manager, Chris Driskill, and Director of Clinical Operations, Caryn Thompson.
