Berg has been named a 2018 PharmaVOICE 100 honoree by PharmaVOICE magazine. She has been recognized as a transformational leader in the Commander and Chief category.
In 2014, Ms Berg moved into the role of CEO for ISPOR, the leading global scientific and educational organization for HEOR. Since that time, she has worked closely with ISPOR’s Board of Directors to strengthen the Society and further its mission to advance HEOR excellence to improve decision making globally.
