Jane Chin PhD, President of Medical Science Liaison Institute Chosen as One of PharmaVOICE's 2006 "100 MOST INSPIRING PEOPLE IN THE LIFE SCIENCES INDUSTRY."

Los Angeles, CA — Dr. Jane Chin, PhD, President of Medical Science Liaison Institute, has been named as one of the PharmaVOICE 100 Most Inspiring People in the Life Sciences Industry. Medical Science Liaison Institute is a consulting firm and leading advocate of field-based medical science liaison (MSL) professionals.

The 2006 PharmaVOICE 100 pays homage to individuals who contributed and influenced corporate strategy, business development, research and development, marketing and creativity, technology, leadership, and innovation in the life sciences industry.

"I am honored to be recognized among outstanding industry leaders," said Dr. Chin, "especially because this is peer-nominated." Dr. Chin was recognized for her contribution through MSL Institute to provide the industry's MSL professionals with newsletters, forums, training programs, and career resources that previously did not exist for MSLs.

Chin sees her inclusion with PharmaVoice's Inspiring "Risk Takers" as particularly fitting, because many aspects of today's medical science liaison profession embody risk.

"There is the risk of conducting MSL activities compliantly in the field," said Dr. Chin. "There is also a risk with where the MSL profession is heading and how the profile of today's medical liaisons is changing." Dr. Chin notes that value demonstration and differentiation for industry's MSL programs will remain critical. Dr. Chin also emphasized that today's MSL hiring practices and career development strategies will shape the face of next generation's medical science liaisons.
