CARES Weekend is an epic, annual all-hands company traditionaimed to deliver on our commitment to provide unique experiences for our team members through prioritizing professional development, philanthropic, and team building opportunities. 

This year, the Project Farma and Precision for Medicine teams came together in Nashville, TN for a weekend full of networking, collaboration, and celebration. To kickstart the weekend, our team engaged in an interactive networking session that allowed team members to brainstorm how we could contribute to different company goals. Next, we were joined by Precision for Medicine and Precision Medicine Group Leadership Teams to learn more about how we are working together to make a historical impact in a panel forum. 

For the third CARES Weekend in a row, our team facilitated our Patient Focused Panel, where we heard from Audrey Greenberg (Center for Breakthrough Medicines), Brett Kopelan (Debra of America), and other industry leaders on the importance of patient-centricity in drug development and recognize why partnerships are crucial to advancing medicines and saving patient lives. To close out the first day of CARES Weekend, our team assembled over 200 Cancer Care Kits for children and caregivers at Ronald McDonald House Nashville.

The second day of CARES Weekend began with an interactive workshop with Second City Works to enhance our emotional intelligence. After a successful start, our team participated in a number of carefully crafted, company-led leadership development trainings focused on Wholistic Leadership. We closed out day two with a memorable dinner at Nissan Stadium where we had live music, dinner, and networking We’re thankful to have the opportunity to come together in-person for a weekend dedicated to investing in our team!
