Cristina Julio

I’m a pharmacy operations and clinical supply professional with over ten years of international experience coordinating pharmaceutical activities within Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). I support medication management, clinical supply, and pharmacy quality practices across complex humanitarian settings, consistently focused on safe and rational use of medicines.

Across 11 missions in 10 countries, I’ve led pharmacy delivery through roles ranging from Pharmacist to Mission Pharmacy Manager and Pharmacy Coordinator. I strengthen treatment continuity by supporting forecasting, stock monitoring, consumption analysis, and security stock planning to reduce the risk of interruption in high-risk, resource-limited contexts.

I’m experienced in cold chain management for temperature-sensitive medicines and in implementing Good Pharmacy Practice (GPP) standards. I develop, update, and implement SOPs, checklists, and operational guidance to improve storage, dispensing documentation, traceability, and overall pharmaceutical compliance.

I also collaborate closely with quality assurance pharmacists, supply centers, and procurement teams on supplier/product documentation and locally sourced items. I’m currently completing a BSc in Biology & Physiology, and I’m applying my pharmaceutical and life-science background toward clinical supply, regulatory operations, medical information, pharmacovigilance support, QA/GMP support, and public-health or clinical research operations.
