Opening up on shutting down

by THE GENERATION BIO TEAM

Each year, for the first week of July, Generation Bio shuts down and the team is able to take well-deserved time off. We are strong believers in recharging and reconnecting with ourselves outside of work, and we take this vacation time very seriously. While some of our team spends the week traveling overseas or visiting friends and family, others are eager to wind down with bike rides, cooking and spa time.

This week goes beyond just logging off; it is a celebration of the hard work we put into each and every day. It is time for reflecting on the past while gearing up for what is yet to come. The July shutdown reflects our belief in the value of taking time to let the outside world fill us up.

In honor of this year’s shutdown, we spoke with the team to hear about their plans for the break and what this week means to them!

Take a seat at the table.
