Core Expertise

Three practice areas built at the intersection of pharmaceutical strategy and intelligent automation — delivering structured, defensible intelligence for global life sciences clients.

01

Agentic CI Pipelines

End-to-end design and deployment of multi-step AI agent workflows purpose-built for pharma CI workstreams — from task decomposition and tool orchestration to Python Pydantic AI Schema execution, human-in-the-loop validation, and real-time conference coverage.

Multi-Agent Orchestration RAG · LLM
  • ›Conference Intelligence Agents: Designing Mind+Machine AI agents on Python Pydantic AI Schema architecture to automate abstract tagging and deliver real-time congress coverage at scale.
  • ›Literature Review Automation Agents: Building LLM + RAG pipelines for automated first-pass screening in Systematic Literature Reviews — dynamic inclusion/exclusion logic, narrative review classification, and evidence synthesis.
  • ›Prompt Engineering & Toolchain: Multi-step prompt architectures and automation workflows across Python, React, App Script, and VBA — embedding GenAI as an accelerant to domain expertise.
02

Pharmaceutical Competitive Intelligence

Structured CI research and strategic analysis for top 10 global Big Pharma clients — spanning pipeline profiling, competitor benchmarking, market sizing, and BD strategy. Insights that inform market entry, portfolio prioritisation, and long-term positioning.

Top 10 Big Pharma Fortune 500
  • ›Pipeline & Asset Profiling: Structured tracking of competitor drug development stages, MoA differentiation, regulatory milestones, and clinical readouts across oncology, immunology, rare disease, and cardiovascular.
  • ›US Healthcare Market Sizing: Segmentation studies mapping patient populations, payer dynamics, treatment pathways, and revenue opportunity across therapy areas.
  • ›Strategic Deliverables: Analyst-authored research decks, dynamic data visualisations, and clinical storyboards designed for executive strategy reviews and physician-facing presentations.
03

CI Automation Suite

Intelligent automation across the full CI value chain — from real-time monitoring and conference coverage to competitive landscaping, launch timeline modelling, and probability-of-success calculation. Manual workflows, re-engineered as reproducible pipelines.

CI Monitoring PoS Modelling
  • ›Conference Intelligence: Abstract signal detection, planner tagging, and competitive congress coverage across ASH, ASCO, ESMO, ACC, AHA, EASD, and EHA.
  • ›Landscaping & Monitoring: Continuous pipeline mapping, asset benchmarking matrices, and therapy area snapshots — label expansions, trial initiations, filings, and partnership activity.
  • ›PoS & Launch Timeline Modelling: Probability-of-success scoring calibrated against phase-transition benchmarks, plus launch trajectory analysis integrating regulatory precedent and market access signals.

Mentorship & Coaching

Now Accepting Students · Cohort 2026

A separate practice, alongside my CI work — structured one-on-one mentorship for India’s most competitive pharma entrance exams, and targeted coaching for Life Sciences consulting interview placement.

Every session is built from first-hand rank-holder experience across GPAT, NIPER JEE, IIT-BHU, and GAT-B — not recycled coaching material. The goal: national ranks, consulting offers, and long-term scientific careers.
