On October 11–12, Dr. Keene Wei, Founder and CEO of Viwit Pharmaceuticals, attended the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies Board of Advisors meeting in Hanover, New Hampshire. As a board member, he joined Dartmouth leadership and fellow advisors to discuss graduate education, strategic planning, and other institutional priorities.

The Guarini School Board of Advisors provides strategic advice to the Dean on the school’s direction, academic programs, policies, and resource allocation. Through alumni engagement, career development programs, and mentorship, the Board also helps strengthen connections among alumni, graduate students, and postdoctoral scholars.

During the meeting, board members received updates on the Guarini School’s strategic planning, new graduate programs, admissions strategies, and broader institutional initiatives at Dartmouth. Drawing on their diverse professional backgrounds, members exchanged perspectives and provided feedback on the school’s priorities and future direction.

Dr. Wei earned his PhD in Chemistry from Dartmouth in 2004 and has remained actively involved with his alma mater. He served as an alumni interviewer for undergraduate admissions from 2015 to 2023, returned as a Chemistry Alumni Lecturer in 2022, and was invited to deliver lectures as part of the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Lecture Series in April 2026, sharing his experience in chemical research, pharmaceutical innovation, and biotechnology entrepreneurship.

Dr. Wei brings extensive experience in pharmaceutical R&D and biopharmaceutical commercialization, spanning drug discovery, targeted radiopharmaceuticals, targeted lipid nanoparticle (tLNP) delivery systems, novel therapeutic development, pharmaceutical quality management, and commercial operations. His background in both research and industry enables him to offer perspectives on graduate education, interdisciplinary training, and connecting academic research with industry practice.
