HIGHER PROFESSIONAL TRAINING

Lecturer in Medicine, the London Hospital, Whitechapel on the Medical Unit,
Director, Professor Ledingham.
1976 - 1980
   
Honorary Registrar in General Medicine to Prof Ledingham and sexual health
to Drs Dunlop and Rodin
.. All medical unit positions gave experience as the most
senior doctor on the unit during 'admission takes' for the firm. The unit was on
'take' 1/5 and 1 weekend in 5. When the NHS position was as an Honorary
Registrar, there was no senior registrar on call. Cover was provided to all other
Junior staff at the hospital. Clinics were two general medical clinics a week for
Prof Ledingham and Prof. Floyer and either an Endocrinology clinic for Prof
Cohen or a nephrology clinic for Dr Goodwin or Marsh. A clinic in sexual health
was continued and patients were managed on the wards.
Jan 1976 – Jun 1976
   
Honorary Registrar in Cardiology to Dr Wallace- Brigden and Alistair MacDonald.
Experience involved training in left and right ventricular cathetrisiton M mode and
later 2D echocardiography, pacemaker implantation both permanent and
temporary, and ahrythmia assessment.
There were three cardiology clinics a week and a general medical clinic was
continued. Additional experience was obtained in being responsible to the
consultant for the running of the coronary care unit and cardiac doctor on call on a
1 in 4 rota.
Jul 1976 – Dec 1976
   
Honorary Registrar in Medicine to Prof Mike Floyer. Experience as before.
In addition I was prime mover in establishing the London Hospital Hypertension
Clinic under the guidance of Professor J M Ledingham. My responsibilities
included staffing and funding the Unit, and I was involved in prioritising research
within it. The clinic had both a service and a research commitment. I advised
general physicians on the management and investigations of hypertensive patients,
as well as having referrals direct from general practice. The research carried out in
the clinic forms the basis of many of my publications.
A screening programme was established in general practice to identify patients
with high blood pressure. Advice and guidance were obtained from Prof. Colin
Dollery (Hammersmith Hospital) and Professor Robertson (MRC Blood Pressure
Unit, Glasgow) in the establishment of such programmes as well as the
management of specialist hypertension units. The London Hospital Clinic was one
of the first in the UK.
1977
   

Honorary Senior Registrar in General Medicine to Profs Ledingham, Floyer and
Cohen.

There was continuous research and teaching experience. During this period there
was a rotation of six months of general medicine and six months of additional
experience.
I continued to manage and run the London Hospital Hypertension Clinic during
this time. It consisted of a technician, a research sister and a secretary, all self
funded from research grants I obtained.
Other Lecturers in Medicine used the clinic for their experience and research. I
remained responsible to Prof Ledingham for the clinical care of patients.


I had three periods on the wards being responsible to the consultant for the clinical
care of patients (experience as before).
I had two further periods of attachment to the Cardiology Department (experience
as before).
There was an additional six months attachment to the Renal Unit, being
responsible to Drs Goodwin and Marsh, where my experience included, renal in
patient and out patient care, pre and post dialysis care, as well as the care of pre
and post transplantation patients. Further endocrinology experience was obtained
with Professor Cohen.

1977 - 1980
   

Honorary Lecturer in Medicine, The London Hospital.
On leaving the Medical Unit, I joined MSD (see later). I continued with my
responsibility to fund and manage the Hypertension Clinic responsible to Prof
Cohen, in the position of Honorary Lecturer in Medicine on the retirement of Prof
Ledingham. The management of the unit was taken over by Dr Goodwin when I
left MSD.


Publications resulting from my work at the London Hospital can be found
throughout my publications on the PubMed List attached. They are numbers 35,
52 and 56-57 and 59-71.


My research on the unit included:
1. Effects of beta blocking drugs on the peripheral circulation
2. Treatment of resistant hypertension
3. Converting enzyme inhibitors and inhibition in the treatment of hypertension
and the physiological responses to stress

1981 - 1985
   

Honorary Lecturer in Clinical Pharmacology to Prof Paul Turner, Professor of
Clinical Pharmacology, St Bartholomew's Hospital
Experience included an out patient clinic in general medicine and clinical
pharmacology as well as a research clinic.


I studied the effects of converting enzyme inhibitors on plasma neuropeptides in
conjunction with Professor Lesley Rees, Professor of Chemical Pathology, St
Bartholomew's Hospital, in patients with hypertension and heart failure and in
patients on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents.


These papers can be found in my full Publications List and in the PubMed list
paper numbers 45 and 50.

1981-87
   
Director and Co-ordinator of Cardiovascular Research, Old Church Hospital,
Romford, Essex.

In conjunction with Dr Stephens, I established a research charity in this District
General Hospital, undertaking studies in cardiovascular disease. There were five
clinics a week, one each in Hypertension, Angina, Heart Failure, Ahrhythmias and
Emergency Referrals. I also attended two NHS clinics in General Cardiology. The
unit undertook ½ the NHS workload at the hospital.
The publications resulting from this work in the unit are throughout my
Publications Lists.
1985 - 1995
   
Director and Trustee of Romford Cardiovascular Research
I have been a Director and Trustee of the Unit which was handed over to the NHS
in June 2003. The research funds were donated to the NHS trust in November
2004.
1996 - 2003

PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE

Director of Clinical Research, Merck Sharp & Dohme
I was responsible for all MSD's clinical research in the United Kingdom, which
involved a clinical commitment to cardiovascular disease, rheumatological
disease, gastroenterological disease and antibiotic therapy and many other
therapeutic classes.


While directing this research programme, members of my department had a total
of over 100 publications and presentations. The research programme resulted in
over three times this number of communications of research. I was involved in
approximately 600 clinical research studies spanning the complete spectrum of
pharmacological research from Phase I to Phase IV.


I developed a strategy that all research performed by the Company should be of a
sufficiently high standard to stand peer review and even the Company's multi
centre GP studies were presented at major UK scientific societies.


I continued with attachments at two London teaching hospitals throughout my
career within the pharmaceutical industry.


I was responsible for the UK development of Enalapril, a converting enzyme
inhibitor.


I was responsible for the Phase III development of Norfloxacin, a urinary
antibiotic, Imipenem, a broad spectrum antibiotic and Indocid Gel, a topical
preparation of Indomethacin, and Famotidin, an H2 antagonist and Simvastatin a
lipid lowering agent.


Phase II and II programmes were supervised for anti-depressants,
bronchodilatators, mast cell stabilisers and antiarrhythmics.


In addition, research programmes included those for cardiovascular drugs -
Aldomet, Moduretic, Blocadren, Amiloride and Moducren, ophthalmic drugs,
particularly Timoptol, anti-rheumatic drugs, such as Indomethacin, Indocid and
Clinoril and Osmosin, anti-infectives.


I also developed with Merck Sharp & Dohme the concept of sponsorship for
academic research which had a corporate interest. The most successful of these
projects was the programme to investigate the relationship between a lowered
serum potassium and the occurrence of arrhythmias. This work is often quoted
and has played a major part in developing the hypothesis out- lined above. Staff -
five physicians, seven CRAs and secretaries.

1981 - 1985

ROSTRUM in 1994, the international contract research organisation with offices
in the UK, USA, France, Germany, Italy, South Africa and Australia.


I established MCRC as a leading European contract research and consultancy
organisation and have established research units at many hospitals. The
Company, under my direction, has successfully handled research, registration and
statistical projects for most of the major American and European pharmaceutical
companies. I have personally supervised clinical expert reports, which have led
to the registration of many drugs in the areas of hypertension, heart failure,
angina, arrhythmias, antibiotics, urology, oncology and respiratory medicine, as
well as many others.


I also founded and developed ROSTRUM, an organisation which trains in
research and regulatory skills, personal development programmes, and organises
many international conferences.


I have lectured widely and taught for major innovative pharmaceutical companies
on GCP and drug development throughout Europe as well as in the Near East, Far
East and South American countries. I consistently presented original research at
major international and national scientific meetings, as well as publishing articles
on many subjects at the rate of twenty per year. I co-authored "GCP for
Investigators" which has sold over 40,000 copies in English, Spanish, German,
French, Italian and Russian.

I was responsible to the Board of Kuraya, a Japanese company, for the scientific
performance of the global company. I continued with scientific input and
consultancy activities. My most notable scientific achievement was completing
the filing of a complete NDA for a Japanese client for an anti epileptic.


I have successfully completed Phase III programmes for anti-hypertensives and
anti-infectives, Phase I programmes for insulin sensitisers and disease modifying
drugs in rheumatoid arthritis, and Phase II programmes in heart failure and insulin
sensitising drugs.
