On behalf of the Board of Regents, I am pleased to present a KUDOS Award to Erica Hansen, a Clinical Research Associate in the Fred and Pamela Buffett Cancer Center Clinical Trials Office at UNMC.
Erica performs research-related tasks that directly impact the success of UNMC’s clinical trials. Her work supports UNMC investigators, research nurses, data coordinators, regulatory coordinators and, most importantly, patients.
Overall, she is responsible for research lab specimen coordination and shipping, management of source documents, pathology requests, insurance predetermination requests, completion of billing matrices, and other essential tasks related to clinical trial management.
She collaborates not only with the internal team, but also clinical trial sponsors and their teams, which span the world. Collaborators - near and far - compliment her for the work she does.
Said her nominator: “Although most of our patients will never meet Erica, I would like them to know how hard people like Erica work to support their care at Nebraska Medicine. Erica knows that her efforts are for the good of our patients and the future of oncology therapeutics.”
Today, Erica is joined by her supervisor, Rachel Brantley; her partner, Trent Hoeft; her dad, Kevin Hansen, along with co-worker, Susan Blumel.
Please join me in thanking Erica for her tireless support to the medical center’s patients, investigators, and clinical trials office.
