Profile and basic information

Professional expertise

  • Expertise Areas: Provides additional granular space to document specific research interests or clinical niche areas.

  • Internal Notes: A dedicated space for confidential qualitative data, allowing team members to document specific preferences, past interactions, or relationship nuances.
