CFB’s Diane Fabel: Biotech investments, partnerships key to LI economy

Center for Biotechnology’s Director of Operations, Diane Fabel recently penned an OpEd for the Long Island Business News: “Biotech investments, partnerships key to LI economy”.

“Breakthroughs made by academic and industry scientists over the last 20 years have advanced the field of biomedicine exponentially. Immunotherapies, regenerative medicine, and pre-symptomatic diagnostics are now realities.

Long Island is facing a moment of enormous potential to advance biomedical discoveries that will improve human health and drive economic growth. Enabled by a concentration of world-class research institutions, and an emerging bioscience industry cluster, the region is at a tipping point.”

The Challenge goal is to support research ideas that would further an understanding of Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and that are intended to be the foundation for the development of successful new startups. NIDA expects that the contest will enable participants to test the premise that their research idea can be fostered into a biotech startup, and that eventually the newly created startups will contribute to the pool of innovative small business companies that can successfully compete for NIDA’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) funding. The Challenge will offer up to ten awards of $10,000 each and technical expertise and mentoring from NIDA scientific research entrepreneurship experts. The Challenge total purse is up to $100,000. Submission Due Date: May 26, 2020, 5:00 p.m. ET. Judging Period: May 27, 2020 to June 15, 2020. Winners Announced: June 22, 2020.
