This is a newly created leadership role on the Medical Affairs Technology Team, focused on shaping a more connected approach to external stakeholder engagement by orchestrating multiple channels and bringing together digital and personal interactions into a unified, cohesive capability within Medical Affairs Technology (MAT).
