Where’s Pharma?
Before we get into common hubs for biopharma in the U.S., let’s be clear that not all jobs in pharma or biotech require you to live in one of these hubs. There ARE opportunities for remote work. So, if you aren’t planning to move to San Francisco or Boston don’t fret!
Pharmaceutical company centers:
Northeast: New York and New Jersey
Chicago, Illinois (Abbvie)
Biotech hubs:
Cambridge/Boston, Massachusetts
San Francisco, California
Other geographic areas:
San Diego, California
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina: especially for Contract Research Organizations (CROs) & Manufacturing
