Eric was asked to serve as co-chair of the WCG Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council, which he did proudly for 18 months until his departure. Eric counts the opportunity to learn from the DE&I community among the most significant of his career.
Since 2016, his work has been focused on projects related to endpoint assessments for clinical studies in the immuno-dermatology therapeutic area. Working with Sponsors, CROs and Medical Societies, Eric has supported a variety of endpoint measurement and validation projects. These projects include scale and instruction for Atopic Dermatitis, Generalized Pustular Psoriasis, Hand and Foot Syndrome, Hand Eczema, as well as adapting existing scales for used in assessing severity in skin of color.
