In this kickoff conversation, Darshan Kulkarni and Edye Edens introduce a candid new series exploring how legal and compliance professionals approach clinical research differently—but with a shared mission. The idea was born at the Save Our Sites event, where they realized they often take distinct, yet complementary, paths to solve the same problems.

Edye draws from her deep operational and academic background, including experience with the ORI and FDA, and focuses on making complex issues relatable and engaging. Darshan brings a broader regulatory lens—from sponsor, CRO, and site perspectives—and specializes in enforcement expectations from DOJ, OIG, OCR, and FDA. Together, they balance legal precision with practical implementation.

They tease their upcoming live webinar on April 28th, which will focus on how sponsors can detect and prevent fraud in clinical trials. Expect real-world insights, early intervention strategies, and conversations that go beyond theory—because preventing fraud starts long before the red flags.

This isn’t your typical compliance chat. It’s a thoughtful, back-and-forth series that reflects how diverse perspectives can create stronger, smarter research environments.
