Jenifer McIntosh
The DPO I had the pleasure of working with on that project is one of the best DPO/counsels I have worked with when it came to thoughtfully negotiating through a clinical trials-DPA, given his great working knowledge of the GDPR and the crossover with clinical trials regulations in both EU & UK.
