Molecule to Marketing, An Introduction to Healthcare Communications

Facilitated by Harry Brady, Communications and Policy Director at MSD UK.

The HCA 'Molecule to Marketing' course provides attendees with a comprehensive introduction to the principles and practicalities of healthcare communications.  Aimed at both agency and in-house personnel, the full day’s course comprises a dynamic mix of theory and practical sessions, with expert speakers on hand to impart advice and provide guidance.

The course includes a review of how medicines come to market, a talk from a senior pharma marketer, and insights into how communications and stakeholder activity adds value to the mix before and after launch.

A major element of the programme is practical, with a hands-on workshop allowing delegates to work together in small teams to solve some classic communications challenges and develop creative solutions.

The event is suitable for anyone in their first communications role or those working alongside PR and medical education colleagues who wish to gain ‘real world’ insight into what can be gained from effective and engaging communications activities.

Speakers will include the following:

• Harry Brady, Communications and Policy Director at MSD UK
• Gary Duncan, International Marketing Director, Jazz Pharmaceuticals
• Monica Sudra, Senior Medical Advisor, MSD
• Siân Hurst, Managing Director, Aurora

Note: All attendees are invited to networking drinks after the workshop has ended at 5pm.
