Seminar Title: "Emergence and Evolution of a Pandemic Canina Parvovirus -- The Control of Viral Host Range and Antibody Neutralization"

By: Dr. Colin Parrish, Cornell University

Many life science companies do not fail because the science was wrong. They fail because no one validated the problem, the customer, or the market before years of development. This Lab to Impact session, hosted by Cornell's Center for Technology Licensing, brings together Audrey Beckman (Boomerang Ventures), Dave Saunders (AiM Medical Robotics), and Dr. Amir Goldan (Weill Cornell Medicine) to discuss customer discovery in early-stage life sciences. Donna Rounds, Ph.D., will moderate. Open to Cornell researchers, faculty innovators, and aspiring entrepreneurs.

Dr. Julia Herman, DVM, MS, will be holding a special presentation, "Improving animal health and welfare through industry education and quality assurance programs" on Thursday, October 22nd from 12-1pm in the Murray Lecture Hall 1 (S1-166) at the College of Veterinary Medicine.
