We talk to Eric Hughes about his role as Novartis’ global development unit head of Immunology, Hepatology and Dermatology
What is your background and current role?
I joined Novartis in 2015 as the head of the development unit for immunology, hepatology and dermatology. It’s our job to oversee the clinical development and regulatory approvals of a number of innovative treatments, both in development and already in market. I’ve also just recently been appointed head of drug development for the company in China.
Before joining Novartis, I worked for other pharmaceutical companies on projects ranging from Phase I to Phase III development. I’m a licensed physician with specialty training in infectious diseases – with a doctoral degree in immunology from Yale.
