Thoughts on Tom Koutsavils (named head of US Medical Affairs) and Wolfram Nothaft (future Takeda Chief Medical Officer).
Are they good, bad, mediocre. Will they hire Shire people instead of Takeda?
Cannot speak for Wolfram, however I spoke to my MSL about Tom Koutsavlis and the feedback is that he is probably the best thing that could have happened for medical affairs in the US. He is a great leader, has a vision, knows how to get the job done, will fix all the crap Shire has made of medical affairs, and he is transparent (as much as one can be at his position). He also wants to promote the internal impact of medical affairs. There are necessary firewalls between medical and commercial, but not so much so that med affairs folks feel like their hands are tied the whole time and cannot even talk to us in the commercial side.
MAybe he can make sure med affairs actually, you know works. Wtf do they DO?

Idiot ...Nothat and I were at a titty bar back in the day, dude likes to party. He'll be a good leader
Oh I don’t know ... maybe generate the data and publications you need to engage customers , manage and develop clinical studies and translate that into a scientific stories that airhead kinesiology majors in sales , can understand and not send us into a CIA.
Want me to go on ? You work for a pharma company . Science and medicine are the backbone. No science , no pipeline, nothing for you to sell .

And how do those articles "magically" appear in google, PubMed, journals etc? Who writes them? How is data collected and generated? You are a bozo.
By the way, are you an MD/PHD/PharmD ? Are you telling me you are so arrogant that you can speak to the articles without the vast amounts of sales training not only on the disease state and data---but anything else science oriented? You all BEG for new publications and data to keep your conversations with physicians fresh and interesting. So you are very welcome, hotshot.
As a medical affairs member that has led sales training, you folks have zero idea of the science and clinical practice without having it spoon-fed to you.
You're a joke. Stop posting. You are simply embarrassing yourself.

Yet here you are selling out “patients” for the sweet pharma cash and decent work hours. Go away.I’m an NP. And I did this for many years before getting into industry. I worked with medical affairs from numerous companies. Yes, physicians and hospitals need your grants, We all laughed when industry came to discuss studies. We know how to read them and the results.
Sorry loser but there are Shire med affairs that got the job with phds. My doctors “really” respect that. Lol. You’re not needed. Go away
