Amy Nicole Nayar aims to leave a legacy for families whose lives are less burdened by disease. I worked on gene therapy discovery while I pursued my PharmD, and then earned a Master’s degree in Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR). Over 14 years at Pfizer, I served in Medical, Commercial, and Public Affairs roles, gaining insight into how the industry needs to collaborate with all parts of the healthcare system to create solutions. I established the Access Support Team and grew the Worldwide Alliance Development function at Pfizer to be 150 colleagues strong. I created an External Stakeholder Strategic Partnerships function to bring vaccines to patients in Emerging Markets. I’ve since led the External Affairs and Communications teams at Porter Novelli, AbbVie, and AveXis, now Novartis. My goal is to collaborate with stakeholders to create solutions that lead to quantum leap improvements in research, policy, and care. I’m honored to work with the rare disease community to harness the incredible opportunities we are now seeing come to life that disrupt patient care as we have known it.
