Scientific Project Manager

Camille Brochier

Oncology, Immunology & Rare blood disorders

“At Institut Roche, we work at the crossroad of industry and academia. We are lucky to work everyday with the best international scientists, and foster meaningful research collaborations that will directly benefit human health.”

Your role at Institut Roche and brief presentation of your professional background:

I joined Institut Roche in 2018 as a Scientific Project Manager. My role is to work withRoche’s R&D teams and find the external expertise and resources that will accelerate scientific discoveries and bring new treatments to patients.
In other words, I am involved in the scouting, set-up and long-term management of collaborative translational research programs between our R&D teams and academia. I am also lucky to be a thesis advisor and help train the next generation of research scientists.
A molecular neurobiologist by training (Ph.D. from Paris-Saclay University, France), I also hold a Master in Biopharmaceutical Management (ESCP Europe business school). I have worked over 10 years in academia, first as a postdoctoral researcher at the Burke Neurological Institute (White Plains, NY) and then as Junior Faculty at Weill Cornell Medicine (New York, NY).

My Focus at Institut Roche:

My efforts at Institut Roche are directed towards the fields of oncology, immunology and rare blood disorders
