Building a Competency Framework to Integrate Inter-disciplinary Precision Medicine Capabilities into the Medical Technology and Pharmaceutical Industry.
Therapeutic Innovation & Regulatory Science 2024 March 16
INTRODUCTION: Integration of precision medicine (PM) competencies across the Medical Technology and Pharmaceutical industry is critical to enable industry professionals to understand and develop the skills needed to navigate the opportunities arising from rapid scientific and technological innovation in PM. Our objective was to identify the key competency domains required by industry professionals to enable them to upskill themselves in PM-related aspects of their roles.
METHODS: A desktop research review of current literature, curriculum, and healthcare trends identified a core set of domains and subdomains related to PM competencies that were consistent across multiple disciplines and competency frameworks. A survey was used to confirm the applicability of these domains to the cross-functional and multi-disciplinary work practices of industry professionals. Companies were requested to trial the domains to determine their relevance in practice and feedback was obtained.
RESULTS: Four PM-relevant domains were identified from the literature review: medical science and technology; translational and clinical application; governance and regulation and professional practice. Survey results refined these domains, and case studies within companies confirmed the potential for this framework to be used as an adjunct to current role specific competency frameworks to provide a specific focus on needed PM capabilities.
CONCLUSION: The framework was well accepted by local industry as a supplement to role specific competency frameworks to provide a structure on how to integrate new and evolving technologies into their current workforce development planning and build a continuous learning and cross-disciplinary mindset.
