Chaired by Blake Paterson, MD, CEO, NRZ Consulting. The GBC Bioscience Committee works directly with the industry to identify barriers to company formation in Maryland. The committee then devises and implements strategies to overcome those barriers. These include expediting tech transfer, increasing availability of investment funds, addressing the need for a new model for translational medicine and advocating for legislation that supports the growth of the industry. The committee also prepares educational literature such as summaries of "best practices" in bioscience from around the country and the "case statement for bioscience in Maryland." Meets six times per year at 8:30 a.m. at the GBC.
