My lifelong passion and curiosity is centered on finding innovative solutions to complex challenges. Challenges don\u2019t always have to be complex, but the complex one stimulates me more.<\/p>\n
Complex challenges are gems of potential extraordinary achievements, and I enjoy the opportunities to take on such challenges and convert them to solutions which have meaningful impact.<\/p>\n
As a physician-scientist, I have been making meaningful impact in the lives of millions of patients around the world through my noble work in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. I have worked in various roles and had leadership responsibilities in pharmaceutical and biotech companies including, Medigene AG, Norvartis , Sandoz, Novo Nordisk.<\/p>\n
I earned my medical degree (MD) from the Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University (Moscow, Russia), hold a PhD in Immunology from the Charit\u00e9 \u2013 Universit\u00e4tsmedizin (Berlin, Germany) and MBA from the European School of Management and Technology (ESMT)- Berlin, Germany.<\/p>\n
