Awards Boston 2019 Honors Best in Life Sciences: Slideshow
Summary
More than 450 people from across the life science ecosystem came out to the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center last month to celebrate the finalists over dinner and drinks, find out who got to take home the awards, and reconnect with friends and colleagues. ) Emcees Michael Gilman and Katrine Bosley did a stellar job and sure made it memorable, kicking off the program with a rendition of “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” by Green Day, with Gilman on acoustic guitar and Bosley singing. Another big highlight was Mark Levin of Third Rock Ventures accepting his Lifetime Achievement award. He gave a wonderful speech sharing tales from his four-decade career in biotech, and he recounted how he learned to be an effective leader through listening, humility, and getting people to speak up.
