Who We Are

BioMarin is a global biotechnology company that relentlessly pursues bold science to translate genetic discoveries into new medicines that advance the future of human health.

Since our founding in 1997, we have applied our scientific expertise in understanding the underlying causes of genetic conditions to create transformative medicines, using a number of treatment modalities.

Using our unparalleled expertise in genetics and molecular biology, we develop medicines for patients with significant unmet medical need. We enlist the best of the best – people with the right technical expertise and a relentless drive to solve real problems – and create an environment that empowers our teams to pursue bold, innovative science. With this distinctive approach to drug discovery, we’ve produced a diverse pipeline of commercial, clinical and preclinical candidates that have well-understood biology and provide an opportunity to be first-to-market or offer a substantial benefit over existing therapeutic options.

About Worldwide Research and Development

From research and discovery to post-market clinical development, our WWRD engine involves all bench and clinical research and the associated groups that support those endeavors. Our teams work on developing first-in-class and best-in-class therapeutics that provide meaningful advances to patients who live with genetic diseases.

Tactics of MSL activities are aligned with BioMarin Medical Strategy and guided by BioMarin Medical Director according to Medical Plan.

Support the Area Medical Director / Therapy Area (TA) Lead on the development and implementation of local Scientific Educational Programs in line with BioMarin’s scientific needs, including the scientific briefing of the speakers
• Conduct drug administration (dosing and administration) readiness trainings upon request
• Support institution site readiness and perform on site drug risk-management drug education/information of post-marketing studies as required
• Support post-marketing studies as required, in collaboration with study management
• Scientific conference support
• Responds to costumer requests with relevant scientific information and coordinate with Medical Information the provision of answers for on- or off-label queries

• Identify the evidence generation needs in the country
• Work with investigators in company sponsored studies supporting (by request) Clinical Operations and/or Study Management resources by sharing insights on potential study sites in alignment with the Medical Director / TA Lead, based on their scientific capabilities, administrative readiness, and stakeholder interests, partnering with clinical operations and Contract Research Organizations (CROs), as required, engaging with investigators both during startup and throughout the study period to maintain interest in and education about the study
• Work with potential investigators clarifying the process of handling of independent research requests, aligned with BioMarin’s strategy and procedure
• Reactive support to HCPs for assistance in providing scientific information to improve healthcare quality and effectiveness initiatives
• Identify further scientific research opportunities in the area that help increase disease awareness, sharing of best practices, and identification of medical gaps and unmet needs.

• Gather and regularly share insights and knowledge from HCP interactions with cross-functional team members
• Identify unmet medical needs and feedback the corresponding insights to the organization so they can be actioned accordingly by the relevant party
• Collect insights to understand current healthcare practices and treatment of patients with specific disease (e.g. patient and treatment journey)

Medical strategic planning
