On the second Friday of every month, the men gather for a morning of breakfast, fellowship, and a guest speaker. The guest speaker for April is Ginny Paton, who will present “An Insider’s Look at Drug Development.” After a 35-year career in the pharmaceutical industry, Ginny will share insights into the complex balancing act involved in developing drugs for targeted patient populations.
