Science, the final frontier: Akintunde Bello, senior vice president of clinical pharmacology, pharmacometrics, disposition and bioanalysis
In this month’s episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Akintunde Bello or “Tunde,” senior vice president of clinical pharmacology, pharmacometrics, disposition and bioanalysis.
Tunde speaks about his passion for science and technology and its application for improvement of the world. His passion spans beyond the pharmaceutical space to include other technological advances in engineering, medical science and digital technologies.
As one of the few people of color within the within the pharmaceutical industry in the UK, Tunde attributes his career success in part to his “village”. This village consisted of managers and colleagues along his career journey who clearly believed in him, offered support, insights and valuable career development advice. In fact, it was a former manager who was an advocate for his advancement where Tunde learned of the opportunity which led him to return to BMS in 2015 and to the executive director position heading up clinical pharmacology oncology.
