Hey BSD!
The UCBA is very excited to announce our annual speaker event on May 17th!
Join us in learning how we can take the expertise we develop in graduate school to start and grow a new company in the biotech space. Hear from a panel of experienced healthcare & biotech CEOs about how they have been successful in the field, what they look for in new ventures from up-and-coming scientists, and how you too can succeed in biotech and as an entrepreneur.
Our panelists will be taking questions from the audience during the panel session, as well as engaging with smaller groups of students in a more intimate dinner setting afterward!
Drinks and light snacks will be provided at the panel session. Please RSVP at the link below!
If you’re interested in a special networking opportunity (and a free dinner with CEOs) please make sure to complete the brief survey in order to register for dinner. Spots are limited.
