#33: Bridging the Biotech Valley of Death: From Patient-Owned Therapeutics to Modular Drug Development.
For more than 10 years, blockchain technology has shaped our economy. The background technology is mostly invisible to average users like me.
On the front end, cryptocurrency has hit the news. I remember well the highs of Bitcoin in 2017. And recently, Bitcoin has been rising again.
But, and this is something I want to learn, what applications do exist that can improve the life science industries? Is there something else in the background that will help us solve our problems in drug development, medical devices, diagnostics, and digital health?
The expert's Paul Kohlhaas and Astrid Woollard will answer these and many more questions.
Join us on this Life Science specific Blockchain update.
