This seminar will explore how local biotech partnerships help identify, develop, and retain scientific talent across every stage of a career — from internships and early research experience, through advanced training, to faculty-industry collaboration. Panelists will share personal journeys and highlight existing programs and mechanisms for getting involved, offering attendees concrete pathways for engaging with industry.
Developing and Harnessing Local Talent — Discussions will focus on the different "entry points" into biotech (internship/undergraduate, post-graduate training, and faculty-level engagement), and how regional partnerships and licensing collaborations help drive innovation by growing local talent.
