Biologics Consulting, a full-service regulatory and product development consulting firm for biologics, pharmaceuticals and medical devices, announced today the expansion of its Pharmacology-Toxicology team with the addition of two new senior consultants with more than two decades of combined experience in research, discovery, preclinical development, nonclinical development, and regulatory affairs.

Christopher M. Scull, Ph.D. and Pauline McEwan, Ph.D. joined Biologics Consulting as senior consultants, and will work directly with biopharmaceutical companies to create and implement proven nonclinical approaches to expedite the movement of products into the clinic trials and through marketing authorization. Scull and McEwan will be responsible for planning and monitoring pharmacology and toxicology studies, interfacing with toxicology CROs, preparing for and participating in FDA meetings, evaluating toxicology data, and reviewing and writing regulatory documents (pre-IND briefing packages, IND, BLA/NDA) for a variety of Biologics Consulting’s clients. The addition of these two consultants expands the firm’s pharmacology-toxicology capabilities to meet the growing demand for regulatory and product development support.

“The cornerstone of our success is our team of consultants and professional services staff, who are subject-matter experts with decades of industry and FDA experience. The addition of Christopher Scull and Pauline McEwan further underscores our commitment to identifying and hiring the most qualified professionals to expertly guide our clients through the regulatory process,” commented Norman Baylor, Ph.D., President of Biologics Consulting. “These new team members bring skills and abilities to Biologics Consulting that will seamlessly integrate with our existing team and bolster our pharmacology-toxicology capabilities.”
