Community: BioBasics: Biotech for Non-Scientists

BioBasics™ is an intensive course starting with a review of scientific concepts required for understanding the biopharma industry. Building on this knowledge, the course delves into the cause of disease, the drug discovery process used to identify therapeutics, and the biomanufacturing standards followed to produce therapeutics. Day two begins with an explanation of how the body fights disease and how various medicines work, on the molecular level, to aid the body back to health. The latest innovations in vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, stem cells, immunotherapies, inhibitors, CART, exon-skipping, RNA therapies and much, much more are discussed in enough detail to help you be dangerous.
