Kerrie has over 15 years’ experience in scientific and medical writing in market access consultancy and in academia, with expertise in health technology assessment submissions, value communications materials, advisory boards, journal publications and conference proceedings.

As a medical writer, Kerrie has experience in the cardio-renal-metabolic, oncology, immunology and rare disease spaces, establishing and communicating unmet need and value of assets from early value stories through reimbursement submissions and into launch and post-launch strategy.

She has supported clients with a range of project requirements, including chairing advisory boards and representing manufacturers at HTA committee meetings.

Prior to working in consultancy, Kerrie completed her PhD at the University of Cambridge, followed by postdoctoral research at the Universities of Oxford and Bristol.
