Get ready for open and honest long-form conversations with fascinating and passionate individuals in clinical research.
These are people you may or may not be aware of, with one thing in common - they are all doing extraordinary things.
I’m thrilled to introduce the Pharma Prescribed Podcast!
My goal is to delve deeply into current trends, innovations, and leadership philosophies across life sciences.
By creating a platform for meaningful, less structured discussions, this podcast seeks to inform, inspire, and connect you with leaders who are making significant contributions to the field.
The central ”why” lies in our commitment to impactful dialogues that highlight collaboration, innovation, and ethical practices, which are shaping the future of drug development.
These are the conversations you wish life science leaders were having.

The 'Digital Twin' That Tests Your Drug Before Any Patient Does

Épisode 7

mardi 5 août 2025 • Durée 39:22

Belma Alispahic on SimCell, Digital Twins for Bioprocessing & Why AI Isn't Optional Anymore | Pharma Prescribed

Belma Alispahic — co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Analysismode — joins Adam Walker for a conversation about AI-powered bioprocess development, digital twins and what happens when a curious kid from Bosnia decides she can't be an astronaut.

Belma has a Master's in applied biotechnology from Uppsala University and co-founded Analysismode during COVID. The company's platform, SimCell, uses AI and digital twins to simulate bioprocesses — helping pharma reduce manufacturing costs, shorten time to market and make smarter development decisions without running every experiment in the lab.

She recently spoke at the 9th Bioproduction Congress in France. Her message: AI isn't optional — it's essential.

The Trial That Failed His Mother — So He Rebuilt the System

Wessam Sonbol on Delve Health & Why Clinical Trials Failed His Mother | Pharma Prescribed

Wessam Sonbol — founder and CEO of Delve Health — joins Adam Walker for a conversation about decentralised trials, patient concierge teams and what happens when clinical research failed your mother and you decide to fix it.

Wessam's mom was a cancer patient who struggled to join a clinical trial — not because the science failed, but because the process did. The paperwork, the jargon, the drives, the system. That became the founding story of Delve Health — a platform supporting decentralised and hybrid clinical trials in 65+ languages, with wearables, televisits, AI-powered tools and a concierge team that speaks to 1,500–2,000 patients a week.

30% reduction in dropout. 20% faster trial completion. 40+ people across US, Belize, Egypt and Pakistan.

The Missing Metric That Explains Why So Many Treatments Fail

Épisode 4

mardi 29 juillet 2025 • Durée 34:33

Philip Morisky on Medication Adherence & Why Healthcare's Metrics Must Be Fixed | Pharma Prescribed

Philip Morisky — Chief Optimist at Adherence and guardian of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS) — joins Adam Walker for the very first episode of the Pharma Prescribed Podcast.

Philip's father, Dr. Donald Morisky, developed the MMAS at UCLA over a 40-year career in behavioral science. The scale is now used in over 100 countries and hundreds of languages. Philip has taken it from academic tool to global health technology — building Atlas (a real-time adherence mapping platform), Zoe (an AI conversational agent), and a pharmacist training programme called Expert.

His title isn't CEO. It's Chief Optimist. Optimist is Latin for the best.

Yuriy Lebid on Building a CRO during Ukraine War & Never Giving Up | Pharma Prescribed

Yuriy Lebid — CEO of Pharmaxi — joins Adam Walker for Episode 2 of the Pharma Prescribed Podcast, and one of the most extraordinary stories of entrepreneurial resilience in the entire series.

Yuriy is a doctor, scientist and self-taught clinical research expert who built a full-service CRO from scratch in Ukraine. When Russia invaded on February 24th, 2022, he made a promise to his 28 employees: no one would be fired, salaries would be paid in full for six months, whatever happened. He made 90 calls in 30 days, relocated his team, restarted trials, expanded into Poland — and came out the other side stronger.

Pharmaxi just celebrated its 10th anniversary.

Charbel Abdo on Pharmacy in Lebanon, Resilience & Seeking His First Role in UK Clinical Research | Pharma Prescribed

Charbel Abdo — pharmacist from Lebanon, MSc Pharmaceutical Sciences (distinction) from the University of Greenwich — joins Adam Walker for one of the most personal and hopeful conversations on the Pharma Prescribed Podcast.

Charbel grew up in a small village in Lebanon, moved to Beirut alone to study pharmacy, graduated during the country's worst economic crisis, then came to the UK to earn his Master's. He and Adam met by accident — Charbel was showing a stranger to a room at Greenwich and walked into an AstraZeneca networking event. That stranger was Adam.

He's now actively seeking his first role in clinical research in the UK. This episode is his platform.

Charlotte Chadwick — founder of Clinology and Dynamic Clinical Solutions — joins Adam Walker for a conversation about 25 years in clinical operations, building a phase one unit from scratch and creating a platform that makes expert consultants visible to the companies that need them.

Charlotte started as a junior QC at a generic trial site in Manchester, became a CRA at Lundbeck, spent 13 years assessing 80–90% of the world's phase one units, built the Early Phase Unit at MAC Clinical Research (a name she coined and wishes she'd trademarked), rose to VP of Clinical Operations, then became COO at Zigzag Associates — a global QA consultancy. Now she runs two businesses: Dynamic Clinical Solutions for full-time consulting and Clinology to connect independent consultants with pharma clients directly.

Adam and Charlotte first worked together at MAC Clinical in Manchester.

Almost Everyone in This Industry Arrived by Accident. Here's What Keeps Them

Épisode 8

mardi 12 août 2025 • Durée 47:08

Anders Mortin on Triticon, Knowledge World & 25 Years of Accidental Pharma | Pharma Prescribed

Anders Mortin — co-founder of Triticon and builder of the Knowledge World platform — joins Adam Walker for a conversation about eClinical consulting, knowledge sharing and what it means to build a company that values being useful over being big.

Anders holds a Master's in engineering physics from Lund University and fell into clinical data management by accident — a handball teammate needed extra hands for data entry at a small CRO. A brief escape to laser optics ended when the company collapsed after 26 days. He went back to pharma and never left. Twenty-five years later, he and his partners run Triticon from a hospital in Copenhagen with meeting rooms themed as a hunting cabin, Bali and Nasa.

Treat People Like Athletes, Not Assets: The CRO Built on Wellbeing

Épisode 9

dimanche 17 août 2025 • Durée 34:41

Leigh Fell on Caritas Bioscience, Corporate Athleticism & Wellbeing Isn't a Perk | Pharma Prescribed

Leigh Fell — founder of Caritas Bioscience, Sunday Times 25 Women Succeeding in 2025 and champion of corporate athleticism — joins Adam Walker for a conversation about building a purpose-driven CRO, burnout, wellbeing and what it means to treat people the way you'd want to be treated.

Leigh started in clinical operations running oncology trials, experienced burnout as a CRA, and vowed to build a company that looked after its people. In 2017 she founded Caritas — named after the Latin motto of both her and Adam's schools meaning love for all. The company now specialises in neurology and oncology trials, has achieved 30% better employee retention through its wellbeing-first culture, and partners with pharma innovators in areas of profound unmet need.

2,000 Videos In: Why Trust Is the Ultimate Cheat Code in Healthcare

Épisode 10

vendredi 22 août 2025 • Durée 49:38

Dr. Berry Pierre on Main Character Energy, 2k YouTube Vids & Trust in Healthcare | Pharma Prescribed

Dr. Berry Pierre — board certified internist, host of the Lunch and Learn Podcast and digital health educator with over 2,000 YouTube videos — joins Adam Walker for one of the most energising conversations on the Pharma Prescribed Podcast.

Dr. Berry grew up in a Haitian community in the US, inspired by his childhood paediatrician Dr. Gasstone — the community physician who spoke their language and their truth. He decided at elementary school he wanted to be a doctor, never had a plan B, and never looked back. Fifteen years into clinical practice, he realised he couldn't help the whole community one patient at a time — so he started going live on Facebook during his lunch hour, twice a week, and built a digital health empire from there.

His golden rule: be trustworthy, be responsible, and add a pinch of confidence.
