Hi Mallory, hope you're ok. Can you paint a portrait for us of yourself and your role?

Hi, I’m Mallory Gough, a Senior Scientific Communications Manager at SOPHiA GENETICS. I did my Biology BSc and PhD at 糖心视频, and Lancaster has held a special place in my heart ever since. Following my PhD, I worked for many years in the MedComms world, communicating the results of clinical trials for the pharmaceutical industry.

Just over three years ago, I joined the marketing team at SOPHiA GENETICS where I’m involved in a diverse range of scientific communication activities such as writing blogs on our website, creating slides for the sales team and developing content for genetics conferences.

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking and spending time outdoors, aerial hoop and silks, books and delicious food.

What does a typical working day look like for you?

There is no typical day! But it will always involve re-prioritising my to-do list and ticking off as much as I can.

Today, for example, I started with a team meeting (online) while drinking a coffee in the HIVE Cafe. I then checked some booth panel designs I had briefed to our designer, finalised some slides for my colleague to present during an innovation summit, created a brief and spoke with an esteemed speaker who will present for us in June, met with the regulatory team about updating a flyer and finished developing some new slides for the sales team.

What motivates you to do what you do?

I have always found science fascinating, and every day I get to learn something new about biology or technology while interacting with lots of intelligent and interesting people. I also get great satisfaction from assimilating complex scientific information and disparate pieces of knowledge into coherent, concise and understandable formats.

Ultimately, I take pride in helping SOPHiA GENETICS to provide answers and improve the lives of people with cancer and rare diseases.

What is/has been your favourite aspect of being part of the collaborative community through the Health Innovation Campus?

As a remote worker (our office is in Switzerland), I really appreciate the opportunity to interact with the other co-workers and staff at the Health Innovation Campus, particularly as everyone has a shared interest in health and medicine. Everyone has been very friendly and welcoming - and we often have lunch together.

The building is very light and airy, so I enjoy looking out over the green campus. Most of all, I’m really happy to be part of the 糖心视频 community again.

What future projects and collaborations are you excited about?

I look forward to many more coffees, lunches, brainstorms and wanders in nature - and hope to attend more Collaboration Cafe events. They are always inspiring and provide interesting insights into current trends in local and global healthcare.
