Blurred Lines: The Evolution of Medical and Commercial Roles with Christine Ong, PharmD

The line between Field Medical and Commercial is becoming harder to define. But are these functions truly becoming more alike, or have they always shared more than we acknowledged? In this episode, we examine the activities and capabilities that increasingly overlap, what still makes Field Medical distinct, and why these boundaries are shifting now. We also discuss what this evolution means for MSL careers as roles become more fluid and professionals gain more options for where their skills can take them. If Medical and Commercial can perform many of the same activities, does the distinction still matter? And how should MSLs prepare for what comes next?
