@dansfera: Ever wonder how big pharma staffs massive clinical trials without hiring everyone themselves? 🧪 It’s all about the FSP model—often called the “rent-a-body” approach. Unlike a full-service setup where a CRO handles every single moving part (project management, safety, stats, site payments), the Functional Service Provider model is surgical. Sponsors simply ask for specific roles—like 15 data managers for 18 months—and plug them directly into their own systems. The biggest perk? Almost zero pass-through costs because the sponsor keeps the operational reins. A fascinating look at how efficiency works behind the scenes in the clinical trial world. #ClinicalTrials #PharmaCareers #FSP #ClinicalResearch #Biotech
