Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Activities surrounding the receipt of adverse event reports which includes entering data from the reports into a safety system. As the year went on my day to day activities shifted more towards projects aimed at improving processes involved in adverse event intake.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given lots of responsibility and was allowed to work autonomously without oversight from supervisors, however help and support were always available when needed. My managers involve me in as many projects as possible and I got really good exposure to pharmacovigilance overall.
