Have you ever been offered a chance to teach something that was outside
your specialty? If you have ever been in this situation, or may be in
the future, join us at this month’s LCFF with special guest and local
science teacher Patty Murray. Patty has taught multiple difference
science disciplines at Woodstock Union and Hanover High School. She
joins us to share her insights regarding how to prepare for a lesson
that is outside your specialty and tricks for on the spot discussion of
confusing topics. Come bearing questions and stories as we hope this
meeting will be both an opportunity to learn some tricks and a great
discussion! 

In order to cultivate a community focused on teaching and learning
amongst graduate students and postdocs, DCAL has established a Learning
Community for Future Faculty (LCFF). The focus of this group is to share
the rewards and challenges of college teaching, while digging a bit
deeper into best practices and techniques for teaching.  The LCFF meets
monthly on the 2nd Monday of the month.

Early Deadline for Advanced Degree Candidates Approaching
August 14, 2017
Senior Associate, Life Sciences Strategy Consulting
 
Boston, MA
 
Clarion Healthcare, LLC, a life sciences strategy consulting firm in
downtown Boston, is seeking intellectually curious, highly analytical,
team-oriented individuals eager to roll up their sleeves and help
pharmaceutical / biotech clients address their most important strategic
and organizational challenges. 
  
As a Senior Associate at Clarion you will gain deep experience in -- and
broad exposure to -- the dynamic biopharmaceutical industry.   Working
with a team of seasoned professionals you will help shape decisions of
senior executives.  Recent projects include: 
 
·       Developing a novel, industry-leading commercialization model for
a development stage biotech client preparing to launch its first
oncology product;
·       Developing a rare disease profile to evaluate a
biopharmaceutical client’s potential acquisition of a development-stage
asset for disease treatment;
·       Supporting a top  multinational pharmaceutical company in
developing and implementing a groundbreaking, comprehensive patient
support program for diabetes;
·       Assessing a potential acquisition in the healthcare space for a
large-cap private equity firm by providing analysis of the target market,
company, and investment potential.
 
Clarion provides an exceptional opportunity for you to develop a broad
base of in-depth commercial experience in a dynamic, collaborative,
downtown office environment.
 
ABOUT THE SENIOR ASSOCIATE OPPORTUNITY
We care about performance and results more than titles, and we strive to
keep hierarchy to a minimum. Based on experience and credentials, recent
graduates enter the firm at one of two levels:
 
Senior Associate: Recent graduates from advanced degree programs and
college graduates with relevant work experience join Clarion as Senior
Associates, and can expect differences in expectations, compensation,
and career trajectory based on the individual’s academic and
professional experience. 
 
Clarion Senior Associates gain exposure to a broad range of issues
facing life science businesses in the rapidly changing biopharma
industry.  As a Senior Associate, you will develop and apply a solid set
of skills that will help you contribute to our work in key areas and
will serve you well throughout your career:
 
Research & Analysis:  Using primary and secondary sources, you will
identify information critical to understanding our clients’ business
problems.  Whether the information relates to market trends, companies,
competitors, or products, you’ll learn to use your analytical skills to
prioritize key issues, generate hypotheses, test them and transform key
learnings to practical implications.
Creativity:  Gain experience in approaches and processes that facilitate
out-of-the-box thinking to craft actionable insights and thereby shape
strategic direction for the clients. It is Clarion’s mission to support
innovation in the life sciences among both our consultants and our
clients.
Communication:  Learn the skills to engage with clients in order to
affect change that leads to better performance and ultimately improved
outcomes for patients.
 
You will learn all these skills in a fun and intellectually stimulating
environment with great colleagues. Each project is unique, but a case
team typically consists of 3-6 Clarion members including a Managing
Director and/or Principal, an experienced Consultant and/or Manager, and
one or more Associates.  Client interaction occurs at all levels and
varies based on the project.  Given the size of the firm, our
entrepreneurial culture and relatively horizontal organizational
structure, Associates / Senior Associates can expect to interact with
Managing Directors frequently, benefitting from their seasoned judgment
and experience.
 
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS – SENIOR ASSOCIATE
·       MA or PhD degree, demonstrating significant academic achievement
in any discipline completed / with anticipated graduation by April, 2018
·       Demonstrated quantitative aptitude
·       Solid critical thinking ability
·       Strong communication skills (oral and written)
·       Proven ability to work independently and as part of team
·       Experience with PowerPoint and Excel a plus
 
Professionals at Clarion join the firm with a wide range of background
and educational experiences. We, and our clients, thrive on a diverse
set of perspectives. For this reason, a background in science is not
required but a clear and demonstrated interest in the life sciences and/or
healthcare is essential.
