I did a deep-dive this week into the new data management requirements for NIH-funded projects and it turned out there were a LOT of links to sift through. I compiled takeaways into a checklist - I hope the info saves your lab some time! #AcademicChatter pluto.bio/solutions/academia

When I joined @NucleateHQ last year, I was the only PharmD student. PharmD students now make up over HALF of leadership recruits for RTP! PharmD students receive clinical training, perform research, and complete internships in biotech. Time to consider us in the startup process.

The Bay Area has its hacker houses for techies looking to create Silicon Valley synergy. Los Angeles has a Hype House mansion for TikTokers to make content. Now Cambridge has hopped onto this trend with its own biotech house for young scientists. bizjournals.com/boston/inno/…
