Synovate Healthcare Opens in Russia

Synovate Healthcare has opened an office in Moscow and appointed Anton Timergaliev as Head of its newly formed Synovate Healthcare Russia division.

Timergaliev joins from Cegedim, where he was responsible for developing market research business in Russia. Prior to this he worked for healthcare trends forecaster RMBC, recently purchased by IMS Health (www.mrweb.com/drno/news7812.htm ).

Synovate Healthcare CEO Michael Spedding commented: 'Expanding into Russia reinforces Synovate Healthcare's position as a key player in researching fast-growing pharmaceutical markets. I am delighted to welcome Anton on board - his significant experience in this important market will be a huge asset.'

Synovate Healthcare employs more than 500 healthcare market research professionals globally and is online at www.synovate.com/healthcare. Last month the firm acquired US research firm Oncology Inc., which provides oncology treatment information to pharmaceutical, biotech and financial companies (www.mrweb.com/drno/news7770.htm ).
