"We change our portfolio on a dynamic basis. We are regularly evaluating #data." -Conklin @bmsnews #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Karen Rogers @blairogers]

.@gracescience's Matt Wilsey: “Let’s see what’s possible when we check our egos at the door.” Need to rethink #medicalresearch to get to faster treatments & cures. #FCP4C

[Taylor Cusher @TaylorCusher]

Wilsey of @gracescience: The speed of research is probably the biggest difference between tech & medical R&D. In tech, businesses focus on building the best and succeeding. Biotech has thousands of years of biology to fight and consider. #FCP4C

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

.@VentureValkyrie shares that finding people with shared values is critical to bridging gaps & changing #culture. #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

"We can't replicate the #tech sector completely, but we can help #scientists get a leg up." -Wilsey @gracscience #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

We made it clear from the start that we're not focused on #publication; we're focused on curing #disease -Wilsey @gracescience #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

A facilitator can help create a #community that supports transparency, communication, and strip away the facade of trying to impress one another. -@erigentry #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

"Communicating expectations and the ability to #communicate honestly through difficult times could prevent a lot of failures." -@VentureValkyrie #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

"We start with the 'why' in the hiring & training process." We have a transparent feedback process across the org. -@RileyCEnnis #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

"In the #RareDisease world, you're often hanging your hat on 1 specialist. We try to build an A+ team and show the world what we can accomplish when we check our egos at the door." -Wilsey @gracescience #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

"Our lab is open. We create our #culture visually. Everyone can see what you're doing & you should be happy to share it with them." -@erigentry on @bioCURIOUSlab #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

.@RileyCEnnis notes that @freenome works to encourage its employees to acknowledge their blind spots in different areas, like #regulatory, reimbursement, #clinicaltrial operations, business operations, etc. #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

Often R&D can be about the #technology and not about how you would get a #patient or #clinician to use it -@VentureValkyrie #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

"We've had to initiate this #culture of humility. It's all about asking questions. You need to be transparent about what you do & don't know" -Conklin @bmsnews #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

.@freenome uses #MachineLearning to discover disease earlier & test #biomarkers. Humility & #empathy in our organization allows us to put our egos aside & listen to each other -@RileyCEnnis #FCP4C #SanFrancisco

[Partnering for Cures @FCP4C]

.@bioCURIOUSlab is open for anyone to come in and work. #Tech culture creates more opportunity for people to share passions & take risks -@erigentry #FCP4C #SanFrancisco
