About Catherine

Launches with limited data, evidence gaps delaying access, misalignment between Medical, Market Access and Commercial, or lack of structure in evolving affiliates?
I step in to structure, align, and deliver—turning medical strategy into actionable execution with direct impact on access and patient care.

Senior Medical Affairs and Real-World Evidence leader at affiliate level (Belgium & Luxembourg), I design and implement patient-relevant strategies that directly support access, positioning, and field execution.

My approach combines:
strategic structuring
cross-functional alignment
hands-on delivery

Recognized for rapid onboarding, strong ownership, and the ability to stabilize and accelerate medical execution in complex environments.

Core expertise
  • Real-World Evidence (RWE)
Define access-aligned RWE strategies and lead end-to-end execution. Align Medical, Market Access, Global and external stakeholders, and translate data into actionable insights.
Impact: Generated local evidence addressing clinical gaps, supporting reimbursement, and strengthening scientific credibility and positioning.
  • People Management
Lead and structure cross-country medical teams, define ways of working and performance frameworks, and strengthen field impact.
Impact: Built a high-performing MSL function, improving insight quality and enabling clearer, more actionable field contribution across functions.
  • Medical Affairs Strategy, Launch & Execution
Drive affiliate medical strategy, align cross-functional priorities, and implement Medical Need / Early Access Programs. Lead KOL engagement, advisory boards, and ensure compliant execution.
Impact: Enabled early patient access through a structured HFpEF Medical Need Program and delivered multiple launches with strong Medical Affairs ownership, strengthening access, positioning, and organizational alignment.
