Partnership with Day One Biopharmaceuticals
The Thomas J. Long School of Pharmacy is proud to partner with Day One Biopharmaceuticals to offer a Fellowship in Industry Program (FIP).

About Day One BioPharmaceuticals
Day One Biopharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company created to find and develop new therapies to address a critical unmet need: the dire lack of therapeutic development in pediatric cancer. Day One aims to re-envision cancer drug development and redefine what is possible for all people living with cancer—regardless of age—starting from Day One.
Day One partners with leading clinical oncologists, families, and scientists to identify, acquire, and develop important emerging cancer treatments. The Company’s lead product candidate, tovorafenib (DAY101), is an investigational, oral, brain-penetrant, highly-selective type II pan-RAF kinase inhibitor. The Company’s pipeline also includes pimasertib, an investigational, oral, highly-selective small molecule inhibitor of mitogen‐activated protein kinases 1 and 2 (MEK-1/-2).
