Gail Trauco
Gail Trauco
Advisory Committee Member COVID-19 FDA, Principal CEO The PharmaKon LLC, USA
Biography: The PharmaKon LLC specializes in clinical pharmaceutical product development and trials. It is a 100% woman owned business led by its CEO/founder Gail Trauco, R.N., BSN-OCN. The PharmaKon partners with biopharmaceutical and biotech companies, investigators, site staff, lab and technology vendors, and regulatory authorities to reinforce patient safety and access throughout every phase of research. All play a part in delivering the quality data that can drive promising compounds forward.
For nearly 30 years, The PharmaKon’s dedicated government and public health services group has successfully delivered clinical research services to various agencies, contractors and nonprofits in both prime contractor and subcontractor capacities within full compliance of all federal contracting requirements. Its services have supported the organizations in conducting therapeutic, vaccine and medical device studies on a global scale across all trial phases and therapeutic areas.

The PharmaKon has a unique understanding and connection to rural healthcare and underserved communities by way of Trauco’s personal experiences growing up on a family farm in her native North Carolina. Despite challenges with generational grief and poverty, Trauco persevered through high school and college at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and then began a life and career of her own as an oncology nurse. Trauco worked for the Chief of Surgical Oncology at Duke University Cancer Cener, Dr. Hilliard Siegler, a pioneer in the field of immunotherapy in 1957, whom she credits for her foundation of knowledge about medicine.

A registered Oncology nurse, pharmaceutical trials expert, and long-time Patient advocate, Trauco has spent four decades helping patients navigate the sea of red tape in the American healthcare system. Based just outside Atlanta, she has gained a reputation as a fierce advocate for patient’s rights and for resolving some of the most difficult medical cases in the currently crippled healthcare industry. As a lifelong healthcare professional and frequent on camera expert, Gail Trauco is equal parts Gloria Allred, Erin Brokovich, and Nancy Grace…with a small twist of Dog the Bounty Hunter.
