Women In Life Sciences
We are proud to collaborate with leading women in life sciences in their quest to advance science and patient care.
Azurii Collier, PhD, is a Management Consulting Senior Manager in the Life Sciences Practice at Accenture. Her work includes both R&D and commercial, strategy and business processes. Prior to her career in consulting, she earned a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience from Northwestern University and completed a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine utilizing neuroimaging methods to investigate cognitive processes.
Driven by a lifelong curiosity that leads her to constantly ask why, her passion for understanding the brain has been supported by both family and colleagues along the way. She believes that we should always strive for excellence in everything we do, no matter your gender, race or otherwise.
