from Massachusetts Biotechnology Council
This event has passed.
Thursday, June 5, 2008, 12:30pm - 2:30pm
Whether you come from a large pharmaceutical company or a small to mid size biotech company, as a project manager, the more you know about the drug development process the better you will be able to lead your team towards milestones. This month's PM Committee meeting will focus on the pre-clinical safety assessment activities needed to reach one of the major milestones that we often are focused on: reaching the IND Submission.
Join us to learn and share the knowledge that could distinguish you as a Project Manager.
