Aliya Z. Omer, Vice President of Global Head, Hematology Franchise and Cell Therapy at AstraZeneca, shared a post on LinkedIn:
” ‘The universe is vast, yes, but it is also incredibly sensitive to the light we bring to it.’
It was a privilege to join colleagues from across AstraZeneca and the broader healthcare community at this year’s Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association event in San Diego. Sharing leadership experiences and taking an afternoon to appreciate the excellent efforts happening in all corners of our industry was a reminder of how we all shape the future of healthcare together.
A huge congratulations to Aradhana Sarin, named Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association Woman of the Year for 2026, whose wise words above closed thoughtful remarks, paving the way for other brilliant women, including those of South Asian descent, to follow in her footsteps.
I’d also like to congratulate teammates Leora Horn, named an HBA Luminary; and Sarah Grant, recognized as an HBA Rising Star for their continued dedication to advancing science and leading inclusive teams to make a meaningful impact across our organization and the patients we serve.”
