strategy is useless"(Charles de Gaulle)
In my own words
At Topotarget
My short-term goal for Topotarget is to optimize the
usage of financial resources through comprehensive planning, risk
mitigation, and cost control. The goal is to achieve a registration
of belinostat during the next few years.
The main reason I chose my field
I am fascinated by drug development as it can potentially
change the lives of many people.
The other side of me
I enjoy being active either together with my family or
practicing different kinds of sport.
