Facilitate the dissemination of RWE through key presentations, publications and/or trainings. For example, develop a scientifically based promotional resource targeting a broad spectrum of external partners (e.g., health care providers, payers, integrated delivery networks)
Collaborate on the development of an integrated evidence generation plan for the product team. This would require discussion and alignment on the conceptualization and design of real-world data studies focused on the strategies and priorities of your cross-functional partners

Partner with cross-functional colleagues to enhance the use of RWE. For example, develop a substitute for and/or a complement to an interventional study to reduce the time and cost of a particular drug development goal
Build external partnerships to increase the opportunities to use real-world data to support the product team. For example, identify an external partner who has access to data that can improve the quality and availability of information from different patient populations and countries
