I’m a psychiatrist and epidemiologist by training with more than 20 years experience in Pharma. Over my long journey in academia and pharma I’ve worked on many transformational medicines in a range of disease areas.
That experience shaped my approach to medical affairs in Pharma and thought me about the importance Medical Affairs plays preparing organizations for successful launches and establishing early and strategic customer engagement models.
Do you need someone to help you to maximise the role your medical team plays in developing and launching a new medicine? Do you want to breakdown silos and excel in cross-functional collaboration? Do you want to engage early with your customers to build trust and partnership?
Well if you do, let’s meet.
Just DM me and let’s make it happen.
