BIO
After more than 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry, including 10 years in an international medical leadership position, working closely with R&D, clinical development, regulatory affairs, legal, marketing and finance across Europe and Asia, I recently joined TDR.
As Programme, Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, I support the integration of technical and financial strategic planning, monitoring and evaluation of TDR’s portfolio of activities. In addition, I support initiatives aimed at social innovation to improve health care delivery and access, community engagement and ethics in research, and the engagement with the TDR Global community of researchers.
