Paul Peter Tak

"Someone asked me to consider the fact that you may help hundreds, maybe thousands of patients as a physician and by training physicians, but if you develop a medicine which has a profound effect in diabetes, cancer or rheumatology, then you can touch the lives of millions of people. I found that to be a compelling argument." Paul Peter Tak has built an incredibly varied career centred around a mission of bringing transformative medicines to patients. As a physician, scientist, academic, corporate executive, investor, board member and CEO, he's experienced almost every side of the Biotech sector. He joined us on Careers in Discovery to talk about his journey, as well as: 🩺 The difference between transformative medicines and those that show significant results 🩺 Creating strong teams to deliver innovation 🩺 The importance of decision making Enjoy!
