The Business of Biotech Localized

Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia
Good morning, and happy (warm) Wednesday! This week we continue to bring you everything hot going on in Baltimore's life science scene, covering just a few of the area's up-and-coming medtech companies. We also share some exciting early Alzheimer's clinical data coming from our neighbors at NeuroNascent, as well as fill you in on some of the highlights from last week's ISPE MAST Showcase.

We also bring you a double dose of "In Conversations" this week, first with Workforce Genetics recruiter Jeff Caskey, and second with NextCure Senior QC Manager Shannon Biermann.
