The Rising Stars of the Profession awards honor consultants who have demonstrated extraordinary leadership and impact within the healthcare sector. This year, Jason and Kali were recognized for their impactful contributions to shaping business practices and advancing client success through innovative, strategic solutions in the pharmaceutical industry.

Kali Iyer has been recognized for supporting Medical Affairs and Patient Advocacy teams in strategic planning and insight generation through stakeholder engagement. She has extensive experience working with HCPs, patients, caregivers, and advocate stakeholders across various therapeutic areas to infuse their insights into informed decision-making. Kali has expertise in integrating the patient voice into strategic planning, resource generation, cross-functional decisions, and regulatory discussions. With a PhD in Molecular Genetics from the University of Toronto and a background in infectious disease research, she brings scientific rigor to clear, effective communication.
