    • Careers

Pharmaceutical research has played a huge role in improving the quality and length of human lives for many, many years. It has led to numerous breakthrough medicines… and the discovery of vaccines that can effectively help prevent terrible, often fatal diseases, including COVID-19, the virus responsible for the pandemic that begin early in 2020.
In Part of 1 of this two-part series, we focused on how pharmaceutical research has changed over the past few decades. We also learned about some of the many countries where residents now participate in this research.
In Part 2, we’re going to learn about what impact COVID-19 has had on drug development, what advances and breakthroughs might lie ahead—including with cancer-- and the many job (and career) opportunities the pharmaceutical industry offers. We’ll also hear some cautionary words people might heed when thinking about investing in drug stocks. And finally, we’ll get some great suggestions on where you can learn about new drugs that are in the pipeline.
To help us with all that, we’ve again brought on an outstanding expert on this topic. He’s Andrew Hall.Andrew Hall is the Chief Executive Officer at IMV Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on a promising new avenue of cancer treatment: Immune Oncology.
Prior to joining IMV, Andrew spent more than 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry leading clinical and commercial strategy in the US, Europe and Asia Pacific. Throughout his career, Andrew has been a part of many successful product launches, and just as many product failures, so he brings insight into the complexity of drug development and what it takes to take what we know as a drug all the way from discovery to the pharmacy shelves. Originally from Melbourne Australia, Andrew has lived in the United States for over 12 years. He now lives in the state of NJ.
