RPS elections 2024: Ciara Duffy

I am an industrial pharmacist and Qualified Person (QP), specialising in innovative medicines, with particular interests in radiopharmaceuticals, advanced therapy medicinal products and artificial intelligence (AI) integration. As a QP, I navigate the complexities of quality assurance and regulatory compliance throughout the medicinal product lifecycle, from clinical trials to market release. 

My experience spans NHS technical services, hospital and community pharmacy, providing me with a robust cross-sector perspective. I champion equity, inclusion, and diversity, recognising their importance in cultivating unity within the pharmacy profession and enhancing patient and healthcare outcomes. Known for direct communication, effective change management, and collaborative problem solving, I am committed to advancing the RPS vision in an evolving healthcare landscape. In my leisure time, I enjoy traveling, CrossFit, and running the occasional marathon.
