One of the many benefits of living in San Francisco is being surrounded by exciting new start-ups, in fields ranging from new internet technologies to cutting-edge biotechnology. On any given week I can attend a seminar of a Nobel Prize winning scientist or attend a meet-up about lean software development. This blog is going to be my attempt to synthesize all of the exciting things that are going on in biotechnology start-ups with a heavy dose of insight from the world of Tech. I plan to explore a variety of areas including topics such as: the start-up cultures in Tech and Biotech, start-up funding, profiles of Bay Area life science start-up companies and garage biotechnology. If you have any suggestions for topics to address please let me know, as I’m always interested in learning something new. I look forward to getting the discussion started.
