Physician Renaissance Network was created by Dr. Michael J. McLaughlin with two main goals:

1. Bringing together several pockets of non-clinical physicians for the purpose of enhancing industry education, intellectual interaction, and sharing of opportunities.

2. Establishing the definitive information and guidance resource for clinicians exploring non-clinical careers or activities.

PRN strives to help transform a single linear clinical or non-clinical career into an expansive and evolutionary process.

Dr. McLaughlin is co-founder, co-owner, and Chief Scientific Officer of Peloton Advantage, a medical communications company based in Parsippany, NJ.
