Fellows will be based at Takeda’s Lexington, MA site, with the flexibility to work from the Kendall Square office in Cambridge, MA. They will also engage regularly with faculty from Purdue University College of Pharmacy.

The primary objective of the fellowship is to develop highly skilled professionals who are prepared to meet the evolving challenges of Medical Affairs and the pharmaceutical industry. Graduates of the program will be equipped to pursue impactful careers across a variety of medical functions.
