Meet the Young Professionals

by Rob DeCoste, Commissioning Agents, Inc.

The Young Professionals is a new organization within ISPE that was formed to foster the ideas and professional needs of individuals who consider themselves new in their career and/or the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.  The primary focus of the Young Professionals is education, career/professional development and networking.

The Boston Area Chapter Young Professional planning committee has been formed by members within the industry. The goal is to volunteer for and develop events while addressing specific needs of the young professional demographic.  The current members of the committee are:

Dan Ramsey, Commissioning Agents, Inc.
Jillian Willard, Genzyme Corporation
Jared Marshal, Genzyme Corporation
Aarash Navabi, Invensys
Rob DeCoste, Commissioning Agents, Inc.
AJ McMahon, Sentinel Process
Christa Miller Shelley, Commissioning Agents, Inc.
James Grunwald, A-Z Corporation

The committee is currently working on numerous events, including educational forums, facility tours, and social gatherings and the creation of a database for white papers and publications. Recent accomplishments include developing educational sessions at the Annual Product Show in October 2009, hosting an educational program at Genzyme on PAT and bioreactors, and launching a Facebook page.

Upcoming events for 2010 include an April Red Sox outing, the Second Annual Harbor Cruise, as well as numerous educational seminars. The Young Professionals are also working with ISPE International to help launch similar groups throughout the US and Puerto Rico. The group is open to anyone who would like to participate or volunteer.
