In This IssueThe upcoming months are jam-packed with a variety of Chapter activities. There's plenty to choose from, so be sure to plan ahead for the events you don't want to miss. We'll see you there! The Chapter is joining with a group of area biopharmas to sponsor this Special Olympics fundraiser. Join the excitement as a volunteer and help support both your Chapter and a worthy cause. If you're planning to exhibit and haven't yet pre-registered, you may find yourself on the waiting list. So reserve your booth space today! Our email address is changing! Help us "ring in the new" by using office@ispeboston.org whenever you need to contact the Chapter. Attend this one-day workshop and hear the latest information on hiring trends, skills required and other tips to help launch a career in the pharma/biotech/medical device industry. The second CPIP Study Group has generated lots of interest from other Chapters based on the innovative approach, syllabus and materials developed by our Chapter volunteers. This year's New Year's Social turned out to be one of our most successful benefits ever - not to mention a great way to kick off the New Year with fellow Members. The dual-track approach was chosen to provide concurrent presentations on the same topic - process automation and control - each geared to a different level of expertise. Two panels provided advice on career transitions, one featuring entrepreneurs/small business owners who have departed from traditional employment, and the other, professionals who have leveraged their skills and experience to work in a new area. This hot topic drew a crowd to Genzyme in Framingham to hear a panel of industry experts discuss the impact of ASTM E2500 and other risk-based standards and guidance on their commissioning and qualification programs. Find out what the Chapter's young professionals have in store for the upcoming months... Industry News In Brief, a regular feature of the Boston Area Chapter Newsletter, presents news items concerning companies in the pharma, biotech, medical device and related fields, with an emphasis on companies with a local presence and topics of special interest to our readers.
Regulatory & Legislative Highlights, a regular feature of the Boston Area Chapter Newsletter. It reviews recent actions by the FDA and other regulatory agencies and governmental bodies, both federal and regional, with the potential to impact the pharma, biotech and device industries, and related fields.
The Boston Area Chapter continues to grow at a record rate. For a full list of new members... Join us in celebrating the 5, 10, 15 and 20+ year anniversaries of Boston Area Chapter Members.
