Karam McDonnell
Director of Procurement
Background
I have 27+ years of early to late-stage drug development in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. My focus was on developing life altering and life saving medicines. I had previously worked at DuPont and Nycomed prior to my most recent stint at Merck for 25 years.
I have had the honor of working on large oncology project teams for Merck’s drug pipeline, including the blockbuster Keytruda.
A few years ago, I moved into the Business Sourcing group where I did end-to-end procurement, budgeting, and sourcing activities for all non-clinical outsourced studies.
