The translation that actually matters

Jung’s value is not that he can “speak both languages.” Plenty of people claim that. It is that he has been in the rooms where an oncology data package is either a scientific object (MD Anderson) or a pricing object (equity research, banking, BCG) — and he knows when a company is performing the wrong play for the room it is in.

Physician-scientist, then markets

Dr. Fabio Jung offers PHP Biotech’s Advisory Board a dual perspective: rigorous medical and oncology-research training combined with more than 20 years of senior investment-banking and strategic-advisory experience.

He completed medical training at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, a postdoctoral fellowship at MD Anderson Cancer Center, and a residency in General Surgery at Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, then earned an MBA at The Wharton School. He held managing director and partner-level roles at Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank, Bank of America, and Investment One Partners, and currently serves as a Senior Advisor at Boston Consulting Group.

Because he can read both a clinical data package and a financial model, Dr. Jung advises on how to frame scientific milestones for investors and evaluate strategic options for PHP53-nb and GEN01-AD.
