About Robert Tepper

Robert Tepper is a physician-investor who co-founded Third Rock Ventures and developed their distinctive model of identifying transformative scientific platforms, forming companies around them, and installing Third Rock partners as founding executives rather than simply backing existing startups. Harvard Medical School created a formal teaching case around his career for its Physicians as Leaders curriculum, using his path as a structured example of how physicians can move into biotech and venture while staying focused on patient impact.
