On March 25, 2015 at the Arena International Outsourcing in Clinical Trials Southeast conference held in Cary, NC two people received their FOCM Cards.

Greg Howell of Fisher Clinical Services and Maria Frane, then of Pharm-Olam and now at West Coast Clinical Trials received their membership cards.  The ceremony brought the entire conference (hey, that’s how I remember it) to a stop as all eyes focused on the intensely emotional ceremony.  Greg’s exuberant joy is quite visible and the photo captured Maria’s moment of realization of the momentousness of the occasion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also captured long-standing FOCM members Kim Martinez, Erin Tabet and Mike Jones sharing industry secrets or old ICON stories, knowing they’re protected by the FOCM Umbrella of Implied Confidentiality.
