  • Bernanke Visits Biotechnology Site in Oakland Thursday, October 14, 2010 by Erich Schwartzel-Pittsburgh Post Gazette
    Bernanke visits biotechnology site in Oakland Thursday, October 14, 2010 By Erich Schwartzel-Pittsburgh Post Gazette Lake Fong/Post-Gazette Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke, right, checks out a snaking robot camera made by Cardiorobotics Inc. that's used in minimally invasive surgical procedures. Looking on in South Oakland are three company executives, from left to right, CEO Samuel Straface, vice president Kevin Gilmartin and director of clinical application Richard Kuenzler Say what you will about the economic crisis, but it’s done amazing things for Ben Bernanke's celebrity. In what other economic environment would hallways fill with paparazzi ready to catch the chairman of the Federal Reserve? When else would national cable stations send two teams of reporters to track a former Princeton professor? Boom mics almost outnumbered Secret Service earpieces when Mr. Bernanke stopped Wednesday for two hours at the Pittsburgh Life Sciences Greenhouse. He's in town for a meeting today between the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and the Fed's Pittsburgh branch, and the listening-tour portion of his trip started at the Greenhouse, a local incubator program for biotechnology companies. But drastic economic measures like stimulus funding and bank bailouts have transformed the Fed chairman from a bureaucratic mainstay into a political operative, equal parts prophet and punching bag. Indeed, if Wednesday's discussion was any proof, Mr. Bernanke now presides over a nation of nervous entrepreneurs ready to question his every decision -- even if he's in the same room. A quiet tour of four Greenhouse-assisted companies was followed by a lively discussion on the problems executives face in a national credit crunch.
