"It is hard to overestimate the benefits I have derived from being actively engaged in CASSS for almost 3 decades. To have my professional and personal CASSS career ‘adventure’ include being selected as a Distinguished Fellow is a wonderful bonus that caps an already extraordinary set of CASSS experiences." 

–Nadine Ritter, 2022 Distinguished Fellow

"As an active participant in CASSS activities since 1996, I have had the opportunity to meet and interact with many of my peers in the biopharmaceutical industry, regulatory agencies, and academics all working toward a common goal of making better medicines to solve the world’s health problems."

–Mark Schenerman, 2022 Distinguished Fellow
