The road ahead for medical affairs and MSL teams – Interview with Dr David Grolman
Medical News: The COVID-19 disruption has created an opportunity for pharmaceutical companies to revisit how they engage with customers, including the chance to take a fresh look at how their Medical Affairs teams communicate with increasingly important stakeholders.
Overnight, an industry so reliant on face-to-face engagement found itself
extremely limited in its ability to engage with customers in person.

Dr Grolman is the Medical Director of the Hospital Business Unit and Medical Affairs Cluster Lead of International Developed Markets at Pfizer Australia, New Zealand & Korea. He is also a past President and current Executive Secretary of the Australian Pharmaceutical Medical and Scientific Professionals Association (APPA).
