Executive Overview

As chief scientific and product officer at Lilly, I have the privilege of leading teams that turn bold scientific ideas into real-world medicines. I also serve as president of Lilly Research Laboratories and oversee our global business development efforts — bringing together science, strategy, and collaboration to shape what’s next in medicine. My journey at Lilly began in 2010 when the company acquired Avid Radiopharmaceuticals, a company I founded to develop imaging tools for Alzheimer’s disease. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work across discovery, development, and clinical research, all with one goal in mind: delivering breakthrough medicines to patients faster. Today, I’m still driven by that same curiosity. Because when we ask the right questions and take smart risks, we can change what’s possible for patients around the world. --- I am an Eli Lilly and Company Digital Media Spokesperson and discuss topics related to Lilly, Lilly business and the healthcare environment. We operate in a highly regulated environment and only designated employees can discuss our products or pipeline.
