My second week at the Gates Foundation began with the official announcement that Emilio Emini, currently Head of Pfizer's Vaccine Research & Development has accepted the position as Head of HIV Vaccines at the Gates Foundation! You might be forgiven for thinking that I've started a trend but the reality is that this has been in the works for much longer than my own recent change of job. I received a flurry of communications from former colleagues and Pfizer after the news broke at their end.
I'm starting to formulate a list of priorities and tasks to be done once I get through my initial training and orientation phase. It's fun to see my new job start to take shape and become more defined.
Now that I have a cello I can practise in the evenings after work - so far no neighbors have complained. I am planning on working my way through all 21 of Duport's cello studies as well as studying the cello parts of the late Beethoven string quartets during my three months away from San Diego.
