Last month, we had two fantastic events for postdocs with an interest in entrepreneurship: "Immigration Strategies for MIT Postdocs Exploring Entrepreneurship" (Apr 14) and "Postdoc 2.0: Exciting Careers in Emerging Companies" (Apr 30). The MIT Postdoctoral Association and the MIT Venture Mentoring Service are co-sponsoring another postdoc event focused on bringing all MIT entrepreneurship resources available to postdocs in one place!</div><div><br></div><div>We hope to see you all there!</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Vincent</div><div><br clear="all"><div><div><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:12.7272720336914px"><b><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000">Vincent Chan, Ph.D.</font></b><br></div><div style="font-family:verdana"><div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font size="1" face="georgia, serif" color="#000000">President, Biotech Connection - Boston</font></div></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font size="1" face="georgia, serif" color="#000000"><a href="http://bostonbiotech.org" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">Biotech Connection - Boston</a><br>President, MIT Postdoctoral Association<br><a href="http://pda.mit.edu/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">MIT Postdoctoral Association</a></font></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font size="1" face="georgia, serif" style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Research Scientist, </font><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:x-small">Massachusetts Institute of Technology</span></div><div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font color="#000000"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:x-small"><a href="http://darbelofflab.mit.edu/" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">d'Arbeloff Laboratory</a></span><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:x-small">, 77 Massachusetts Ave, #1-007, Cambridge, MA</span></font></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font color="#000000"><br></font></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><font color="#000000"><font size="1" face="georgia, serif">Cell: <a value="+14438382773" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">(443) 838-2773</a></font><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:x-small"> | Email: </span><a href="mailto:chanv@mit.edu" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:x-small" target="_blank">chanv@mit.edu</a></font></div></div></div></div></div></div>
