"I’m responsible for sales of Palacos bone cement, and Heraeus is the market leader because of our excellent quality. That’s a lot of responsibility, especially out in the field. It’s my job to be able to explain our newest developments when I meet with doctors.

But I also like the fact that I’m doing something to help others. When talking with our customers (basically doctors and pharmacists), I pick up on new medical trends, and I make sure that these get back to research and development. In that way, I play a part in helping ensure that people can continue to benefit from reliably anchored prostheses in the future as well."
