Some colleagues
who know him well describe Derek Warnick as a curious and witty introvert;
others consider him a brave individual who embraces new ideas, his family, and good
baseball. Now in his final week as grants manager for the continuing education
office of Penn State College of Medicine in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Warnick
coordinates the submission of proposals for commercial support across a broad
range of therapeutic areas. Warnick has been working at Penn State more than two years, after
being laid off from a medical education company in Exton. He starts a new job with
a different employer on July 28.
“He is a
curious soul,” says Brian McGowan, PhD, chief
learning officer and co-founder at ArcheMedX Inc, an e-learning technology
company based in Charlottesville, Virginia. “I love the man. I learn so much
from him. I have an unbelievable amount of respect from afar, watching what
he’s doing.”
