IFAPP Academy/MAPS Introduction to Medical Affairs in Medicines Development Course

IFAPP Academy/MAPS Introduction to Medical Affairs in Medicines Development Course

In April we announced that IFAPP Academy and MAPS (Medical Affairs Professional Society) had partnered up to develop and deliver an online course, “Introduction to Medical Affairs in Medicines Development, ” to be launched this year, 2020.  We are happy to announce that registration for this course is now available! 

This course was designed for the Medical Affairs professional who wants to further learn the fundamentals of Medicines Development and how the various Medical Affairs functions contribute to bringing better medicines to the marketplace, meeting patient needs, and improving health in the general population.

This course was adapted from Module 1 of IFAPP Academy/King’s College London, Medical Affairs in Medicines Development Certification Program. It gathers together experts from the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory agencies, and academic institutions to offer the latest advances in all areas of Medicines Development.  It provides tips for the effective practice of the Medical Affairs function through a state-of-the-art interactive online classroom.

Get to know IFAPP Academy Student, Dr. Epaïnète GAWA

May 15, 2019/in What's New at IFAPP Academy /by Amanda Schmitt
IFAPP Academy Student Dr. Epaïnète GAWA, Global Medical Expert, Sanofi
  • What is your name and job title?

Epaïnète GAWA, Global Medical Expert in Sanofi Consumer Healthcare

  • What do you feel is your greatest achievement?

My professional development in recent years. It’s a real opportunity to be part of the global medical team of Sanofi consumer healthcare. Indeed I have joined Sanofi at the local level by working on transversal projects, medico-marketing, pharmacovigilance, and clinical studies.
Today I have a specific medical position, with close interaction with regulatory and pharmacovigilance teams. As a partner, I give my best, and I also learn from others to face future challenges.

  • What is your favorite hobby and/or activity outside of your work?

 Football, scrabble, cinema, reading

  • What do you enjoy most about being a Medical Affairs Professional?

As a physician, my greatest satisfaction is to contribute to the well-being of the patient through an assessment of products based on their efficacy and safety datas, and to propose a risk mitigation plan. In addition i like the medical strategy because it helps to identify the real needs of patients and to propose the appropriate actions.

  • What has been the most beneficial aspect of the IFAPP Academy Program?

This program gives a broader view of the medical affairs function, and the skills required. The role of the medical affairs professional is well highlighted in all activities of the pharmaceutical industry, and this helps to better understand how we can be a key partner of other functions.

  • How has your view of the medical affairs profession altered and/or improved?

I limited the medical affairs to my personal experience but this program has shown me the evolution of the profession and the added value of our role in the life of the drug. Some topics that were abstract are now concrete for me. It is a specialty that deserves to be recognized in view of the complexity of the various skills required to be a professional in medical affairs. This profession has a major role in all decisions concerning the life of the product, from the discovery of the molecule to the monitoring and innovation of the mature product. The professionals must be multi-skilled and have a critical judgment in all discussions hence the extensive knowledge provided by this program.

  • Any additional comments that you would like to make about the Program?

This program is an opportunity to exchange with experts and other professionals from the pharmaceutical industry through webinars and forums. In addition to deepening our knowledge, it is a professional network that is created.

Thanks to Sanofi which is a partner of this program, and thanks to the IFAPP team for your expertise.
