Pitching to stakeholders is a necessary soft skill used daily that requires excellent presentation, listening and negotiation skills. Pitching to a stakeholder can take many forms like, presenting your products or services to a customer, suggesting a new assay or automation platform idea to your manager or describing your company's value proposition to potential investors.
Join this session moderated by Ira Hoffman (HighRes Biosolutions) and Marcin Paduch, Ph.D. (xilis), as they discuss:

Can biological complexity meet the need for standardization?
The need to decrease the drug attrition rate while reducing the use of animal experimentation has led to the development of more complex test systems including multicellular models, three dimensional cultures and organ-on-a-chip. The increasing complexity required to better resemble the functionality of human tissues/organs, while enabling the evaluation of more physiologically relevant endpoints, has also introduced several new challenges concerning their final application in the industry. New in vitro methods must, in fact, be designed, developed and performed to ensure they fit the purpose and their performance (Accuracy, Precision, Sensitivity, Specificity and Repeatability) must be thoroughly assessed.
The event is limited to 60 attendees.
