Senior Study Specialist, Global Study Operations

Who We Are From research and discovery to post‑market clinical development, our WWRD engine involves all bench and clinical research and the associated groups that support those endeavors. Our teams work on developing first‑in‑class and best‑in‑class therapeutics that provide meaningful advances to patients who live with genetic diseases. BioMarin is the world leader in delivering therapeutics that provide meaningful advances to patients who live with serious and life‑threatening rare genetic diseases. We target diseases that lack effective therapies and affect relatively small numbers of patients, many of whom are children. These conditions are often inherited, difficult to diagnose, progressively debilitating, and have few, if any, treatment options. BioMarin aims to improve life and health outcomes for people with rare diseases by advocating the use of innovative BioMarin therapeutics, advancing the standard of care, and providing personalized support and services globally.
