Translational Thesis Sprint — Modular Components
Execution Oversight & Fractional Leadership
Study design and data review to ensure decision-driving outputs
CRO and vendor selection, oversight, and scientific liaison support
Interim scientific leadership to maintain rigor, alignment, and momentum
Use when: Teams need objective and experienced scientific judgment without full-time headcount.
Data Integration & Gap Analysis
Review and synthesize existing in vitro, in vivo, and translational study datasets
Identify data gaps, help with objective interpretation and strategic conclusions
Use when: Teams have data but lack clarity on what it proves and what still needs to be done.
Model & Assay Fitness, Biomarker & Translational Readiness Evaluation
Assess disease models for clinical relevance, translatability, and limitations
Review assay strategy for robustness, selectivity, and partner or investor diligence
Evaluate bioanalytical & biomarker strategy for disease relevance, tech transfer, fit-for-purpose qualification, and alignment with clinical strategy
Use when: Programs are approaching key milestones (DCN, partnering, fundraising) and model/assay/preclinical readout strategy needs to inform clinical development or early trials.
Competitive Landscape & Differentiation Analysis
Focused competitive landscape analysis to contextualize biological claims
Bolster differentiation, risk mitigation, and positioning relative to current and emerging approaches
Use when: External communication, indication selection, or capital allocation decisions are imminent.
