One could describe Mary Costello as a world-class expert in international marketing, business initiatives, and leadership, with a background in patient advocacy, global marketing initiatives, and clinical trial solutions—and one would be correct. Her impressive career includes roles such as Head of Site and Investigator Network at Medable, Vice President of Clinic Development & Patient Advocacy at Elligo Health Research, and Vice President/Global Director of Marketing at leading life science organizations like eClinical Solutions, Fisher Clinical Services, and Covance.

But Mary is not just an accomplished leader; she’s also a skilled question-asker, with the unique ability to construct innovative solutions from complex subjects. Join Mary and host Colin Miller on a question-and-answer filled episode of Fractals, where they hypothesize about connectivity in today’s life sciences industry, including, but certainly not limited to:

• The evolution of patient recruitment and the two key factors driving change: the accessibility of data-driven decisions and the rise of digital healthcare.
• Our early understanding of how AI can bridge essential gaps in clinical and marketing areas by automating mundane tasks that enhance patient engagement, such as delivering marketing messages, building trust, and prompting action.
• The limitations of the "one-and-done" model in patient care, emphasizing the need for flexibility and connectivity in inclusive, accessible treatment to achieve sustainable success.
• The foundational role of pre-competitive collaboration and widespread education in advancing life sciences and improving human lives.
