“Delighted to visit with Bayer Pharmaceuticals in Boston for discussions and to give the Keynote ‘Serial Entrepreneurship in Cancer Drug Development: Ongoing Lessons’ at the one-year anniversary event this afternoon. There are great opportunities in this ecosystem.

I wanted to thank Fiona Mack, Alberto Nobili, and Friedemann Janus for the invitation and the hospitality during the visit. Love the Co.Lab swag.

Now on the way to the ASCO24.”
