Member Spotlight: Eileen Conaway, DO

Dr. Conaway may be one of our newest site directors but her interest in clinical research began long ago.  Prior to attending medical school, she worked as a clinical research coordinator for drug trials for indications including asthma, diabetes mellitus, vaccination, hereditary angioedema, and dialysis.  She graduated from the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2010 and currently serves as faculty for the FM, Integrated FM/NMM, and NMM+1 osteopathic residencies at Florida Hospital East Orlando.

She says, “Now more than ever is a pivotal time to participate in osteopathic research for the preservation of our profession.  Initiating clinic research is extremely difficult, especially in  solo or private practice; participating in DO-Touch.NET makes contributing to research so simple.”

In her free time, Dr. Conaway attends weekly ballet classes and loves to cook and travel.
