Our distinguished speaker, Dr. Lambert, is Executive Vice President, Emeritus, and Distinguished Research Fellow at ImmunoGen, Inc. After earning a PhD in Biochemistry in Cambridge, he completed postdoctoral studies in California and in Glasgow before coming to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute working on ImmunoGen-funded programs to develop antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and immunotoxins as anti-cancer therapeutics. This work continued in an independent laboratory established by ImmunoGen to translate this cutting-edge research into practical cancer treatments.

Dr. Lambert has written or co-written over 120 peer-reviewed scientific papers, and is a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering. Somehow he has also found time for mountain hiking and camping and to maintain a serious rowing career, competing in every Head of the Charles regatta since 1986 and serving on the HOCR Board. He is also a former President of the Oxford & Cambridge Society.
