SUMMARY:LARGER THAN LIFE SCIENCE | Advancing Gene Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Advancing Gene Therapy\nTools for Developing Your Candidate Therapy\nNew gene editing technologies have energized the science of drug discovery and sparked a wave of startups. With the advent of CRISPR/Cas9 systems\, a researcher can find an active nuclease on virtually any region of the genome\, greatly reducing the time needed to develop novel therapies to treat a wide range of diseases. \nBut increased choice can lead to problems in building a cell line model yielding the best results. In the first presentation\, we’ll address common real-world challenges in cell line engineering and explore methods to avoid the pitfalls. \nSpeakers:\nNaomi Baer\, Business Development\, Emerging Biotechnology\, MilliporeSigma \nC.J. Boehler\, PhD\, Research Technology Specialist- Innovative Life Sciences\, MilliporeSigma \nRatish Krishnan\, Associate Director\, Vaccines & Gene Therapy\, MilliporeSigma \nWebinar Link:\nOn the day of the event\, join the Zoom webinar here \n••• \nDownload the free Zoom app ahead of time to prepare for the webinar

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: The Modern Mentor
DESCRIPTION:Mentorship has transformative power. In today’s business world\, it has proven to be a critical element of success by getting people in positions of influence actively supporting\, sponsoring and guiding the careers of women as they progress through their careers\, particularly at pivotal decision points. However\, asking someone to mentor you and managing that relationship could be at times nerve-wracking. \nWCT is excited to offer a webinar that will help mentors and mentees achieve the most from any mentorship engagement. Fiona Gao\, a global marketing leader\, and Angela Brown\, President and CEO of Moneris\, recently participated in the WCT Protégé Project. Based on their experience\, they have released a white paper entitled “The Modern Mentor: Reimagining the Interconnectedness of Women in Business\,” which provides excellent advice for those in a mentorship or sponsorship relationship. \nDate: April 15\, 2020\nTime: 12pm-1pm\nRegister: here
