In an increasingly interconnected world, medical affairs teams at the global, regional and local level must effectively communicate and collaborate to share actionable insights, create medical strategies, and execute efficiently. This includes coordinated efforts within Field Medical (MSLs) to ensure opinion leaders around the world have valuable interactions with our Field Medical staff.

This will be an interactive session with discussion of best practices and case scenarios.
