Gaithersburg AMWA-MAC Chapter Members Start New Year with Tour, Networking Luncheon at MedImmune

medimmune luncheon

Approximately 20 AMWA-MAC members and MedImmune staff launched the New Year with a tour and networking luncheon at MedImmune's Gaithersburg headquarters.

MedImmune Medical Writer Joe Shaw, PhD, hosted the chapter's first networking luncheon of the New Year and led a tour of the facilities, which are undergoing extensive expansion. The existing buildings combine up-to-date amenities such as videoconferencing and extensive meeting areas with open spaces and warm wood paneling.

One of the new buildings will be a 6-storey R&D facility. The site will be certified to environmental standards, which involves extensive use of environmentally friendly materials and recycling.

Thanks to Joe for organizing this event, to MedImmune staff for their hospitality, and to the AMWA-MAC members who could join us!
