At Sanofi, we chase the miracles of science to improve people's lives. We are accelerating Sanofi's modernization journey, supporting our Take the Lead strategy to become more focused, integrated, agile, and efficient.

The way science is exchanged is fundamentally changing — static publications, traditional slide decks, and one-directional medical communications are giving way to immersive, AI‑powered, personalized scientific experiences. Sanofi's Medical Innovation team is at the forefront of this transformation.

Within the Medical Strategy, Transformation and Excellence team, the Medical Innovation function serves as the enterprise incubator for high‑impact innovation. We operate as a future‑focused lab: scouting, testing, and defining the next generation of medical capabilities before handing proven solutions to operational teams for global scale. We work in close partnership with Medical GBUs, Digital, and GTMC to ensure every innovation is grounded in real business need and built for adoption.

The Global Lead, Scientific Platforms & Strategy is the architect of how science is consumed in the AI era. This pivotal role leads the strategy and incubation of Sanofi's most forward‑looking scientific engagement platforms — including GenAI‑powered content, immersive medical education environments, and external LLM platforms — while coordinating omnichannel scientific engagement strategy in partnership with Business operations and Go To Market Capabilities teams.

This leader redefines "Scientific Exchange" from traditional data delivery to dynamic, personalized, and immersive science experiences for HCPs, patients, and payers — designing how science is experienced and acted upon in a digital‑first world.
