In her over 25 years of experience, Rosalie “Rosie” Filling has transformed R&D operations in every company she has worked for, developing clear-cut strategies to help advance clinical trials with high-quality operational execution and scientific excellence.
Rosie is the Vice President, Senior Global Head R&D Operations Endo International plc. She is part of the global R&D leadership team and is charged with the coordination and implementation of clinical development strategies for the company’s research and development. She provides strategic direction and oversight of the R&D Operations team, which includes clinical operations, data management, biostatistics, medical writing, clinical supplies, trial master file/inspection readiness and business operations. This integrated team handles the execution of all aspects related to Endo’s clinical trials. Endo has active research and development programs in men’s health, orthopedics, and endocrinology. Beyond these therapeutic areas, the company also has focused development in the areas of sterile injectables and complex generic products.
Rosie’s main focus at all times is on the end users—the patients. Bringing new and, at times, life-saving medications to patients drives Rosie’s sense of purpose.
