## Resource

In this episode of The BioHub Podcast , Max sits down with Jonathan Sadeh, EVP, Head of R&D and Chief Medical Officer at Bausch Health. Jonathan is a physician-scientist with more than 20 years of experience across global pharma, having held senior leadership roles at Bristol Myers Squibb, Sanofi, AstraZeneca, and Schering-Plough. In this conversation, we discuss his journey through big pharma, the evolution of drug development and R&D, what it takes to progress inside large organisations, and why he chose to join Bausch at this stage of his career. We also explore how the industry is changing, how companies are adapting, and what leadership looks like in today’s biotech and pharma landscape.
