In the UK Porterhouse Insights, the research division of scientific and medical communications network Porterhouse Medical Group, has promoted Melissa Goulding and Paula Barburas to Senior Research Executive roles.

Launched in 2017, the division specialises in applying behavioural science to help optimise decision-making across the product life cycle, using tools and technologies to design 'real world' research solutions for biopharma clients. The parent group was acquired a year ago by healthcare communications and consulting agency imc group.

Goulding joined in 2019 with a BSc in Psychology with Neuroscience from Keele University and an MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Reading. Barburas began her career as an Account Executive in Porterhouse Medical's client services department in 2019, after completing an MSc in Systematic Pharmacology from UCL, with a focus on immunopharmacology and neuropharmacology.

Fabrice Allum, MD of Porterhouse Insights, comments: 'These promotions are in recognition of the excellent progress that Melissa and Paula have made at Porterhouse Insights - in particular, managing and delivering 'Insightful Global Patient Journey' projects across a number of rare diseases for our clients. Following a tremendous year of growth for the consultancy, I am delighted with their progress and look forward to watching their careers flourish within the Porterhouse family'.
