Medical Science Liaison/Sr. Medical Science Liaison, Alzheimer’s Disease - West, North Texas
Job Description
Medical Science Liaisons are trusted and credible deep medical/scientific experts that provide the most relevant, reliable and unbiased scientific information to meet the unique needs of each customer and their patients, as well as Biogen’s clinical and medical strategies.

They are focused on building deep, strategic, long-term relationships with customers and are considered as partners, rather than being transactional in their interactions. They possess “medical business savvy” and customer focus while remaining non-promotional—they can navigate discussions to balance what is useful to customers with Biogen’s medical strategy and bring back useful insights. They are rigorously measured both qualitatively and quantitatively and held highly accountable to their goals.
This territory will include the North West Texas from Fort Worth West and including New Mexico. The preferred location for the successful candidate to reside will be in Fort Worth.
