The Medical Science Liaison (MSL) is a field-based position within Medical Affairs. This role supports disease diagnosis, diagnostic methods, and strategic initiatives to facilitate early, accurate diagnosis across all programs of the PTC portfolio within the assigned country. The MSL supports and represents PTC and its products with key opinion leaders (KOLs), clinicians, academic institutions, and professional organizations. The MSL addresses the specific needs of these clients by responding to unsolicited requests for information about PTC Therapeutics' marketed products and treatment areas promptly and accurately.
Clinical expertise for disease state, clinical presentation, and differential diagnosis of the diseases of interest in PTC’s portfolio will allow the MSL to evaluate and address regional diagnosis gaps. The MSL will develop strategic and innovative diagnosis initiatives within their country to complement the PTC portfolio, supporting PTC programs from clinical trial through commercialization. The MSL will partner with the clinical science and diagnostics function, working in a matrix organization, to support early disease recognition and diagnosis by healthcare providers. As the clinical and medical expert on the company’s products, the MSL builds long-term relationships and establishes rapport with clinicians in hospitals, clinics, and academic centers through highly scientific product and disease state discussions that support or expand current therapeutic concepts and ensures safe and effective utilization of products. The incumbent is also a resource to company management regarding market dynamics, business development, and client feedback.
