About Shafaqat M. Rahman
I specialize in therapeutic neurotoxins across spasticity, cervical dystonia, and overactive bladder. My role allows me to connect the dots between cutting-edge science, healthcare providers, and the patients they serve.Before becoming an MSL, I built a foundation in biomedical engineering and translational research, earning my PhD at the University of Rochester with a focus on migraine and CGRP signaling. Along the way, I’ve led grants, published peer-reviewed papers, mentored future scientists, and even explored venture consulting and biotech development. Each step has sharpened my ability to bridge science with strategy and people with purpose.
