Nael Abdelsamad MD, MBA , FACHE

I work with organizations that need to launch and scale complex clinical trials in highly regulated, high-growth markets.

At Clinical Nexus, I advise sponsors, biotech, and health systems on designing and scaling clinical trial programs across the UAE and United States. My work bridges regulatory strategy, operational architecture, early-phase execution, and AI-enabled research models.

With leadership experience spanning NIH-funded networks, industry-sponsored trials, and enterprise-level research transformation, I help organizations build the structure required to compete globally.

Effective research strategy aligns governance, operations, and market positioning. That is where I focus my work.

"The UAE is quickly becoming a regional and global hub for life sciences. This is the result of leadership-enabled alignment of regulators, providers, industry and innovators moving together in the same direction.”
