Marshall University will help organize the 10th annual Ohio Valley Affiliates for Life Sciences (OVALS) conference in Louisville, Ky., in early October.
With the theme, "Meeting Health Care Challenges through Technology and Novel Approaches," this conference will unite the area's research institutions, federal agencies, industry, investors and service providers to review biotechnology innovation and commercialization opportunities, according to a press release from Marshall University.
"Anyone interested in commercialization of biotechnology, collaboration opportunities and creating economic impact is encouraged to attend," said Amy Melton, the assistant director of the Technology Transfer Office at the Marshall University Research Corporation. "The topics on the agenda really complement Marshall's strengths in biotech research and focus on innovation."
Melton added that this year's schedule highlights partnership opportunities for commercialization of medical devices, the realities of raising capital for start-up companies in a weak environment, and recent changes in patent law and how the changes will impact the patent process in the U.S.
