Riassunto:

Lisa is a naïve nursing school graduate, looking for an interesting position in the health-care field, as well as the ability to pay off her mounting student loans. She visits a clinic in her hometown, with the intent of applying for a nursing position, and exits with a job as a study coordinator, whatever that is?!! A crafty recruiter convinced her to accept an ”exciting position” with “limitless opportunity” for career progression. The only problem is that Lisa has no idea what the position is, what it requires, or the extent of the mess that she has gotten herself into. From brilliant physicians, to complicated monitors, to overwhelmed research directors, Lisa receives a trial by fire indoctrination into the exciting and challenging world of clinical research. Managing clinical studies, patient care, safety and regulatory paperwork, she is thrust into complex situations that test her confidence, her education, and bring her to both laughter and tears. However, these situations also rouse a latent tenacity that transform her fear into opportunity, and set her along a life changing career path.
