In this special episode of Where Great Minds Meet, we welcome Dr. Bob Langer, Sc.D. (MIT), one of the most accomplished pioneers in biotech and pharmaceutical research, for an insightful conversation with students from the Howard University College of Pharmacy.
Together, we explore how to identify and refine key strengths, accelerate mastery in complex scientific and business domains, and stay ahead in the ever-evolving pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Dr. Langer shares pivotal moments from his journey, highlighting the strategies that have helped him achieve breakthroughs in drug development and biomedical innovation.
We also dive into the critical role of resilience—how to turn professional setbacks into stepping stones, reframe failure, and maintain momentum in the face of regulatory and research challenges. Beyond individual success, this discussion emphasizes the importance of mentorship and service, with practical advice on how young professionals in pharmacy and biotech can balance career growth while making meaningful contributions to patients and their communities.
Join us for this inspiring and thought-provoking discussion on mastering skills, overcoming obstacles, and making a lasting impact in healthcare and scientific innovation.
