Biotech companies have paved the way for specialized marketing approaches for orphan diseases since the early 1990s. Some companies have developed life-changing therapies that truly change disease states. Today, biotech/pharma leaders have jumped in. But can all companies large and small find the focus for these orphan diseases and put the patient first? What are the obstacles associated with creating a specialized marketing and sales effort for orphan drugs? Gain critical understanding of how companies are employing specialized marketing and sales approaches that are patient-centric. Speakers on the panel include: Kyle Brown Founder & CEO of Innolyst Jayne Gershokowitz, Senior Director of Patient Advocacy & Public Policy of Amicus Therapeutics Mark Rothera, Global President of Aegerion Pharmaceuticals Rogerio Vivaldi, SVP and Head of Rare Disease Business Unit of Genzyme Using Systems Biology to "Fast-Track" Development and Approval of Novel Therapeutics and Diagnostics When: Thursday, June 21st, 2012, 10:00 am - 11:30 am. Where: Boston Convention & Exhibition Center Overview of Systems Biology and how its application can determine more precisely and quickly which biomarkers are relevant to specific diseases for diagnosis or therapeutic intervention. This approach can also determine subgroups or different genotypes within these diseases in developing a diagnostic test that will determine whether a patient will respond to a specific drug with minimal side effects. Drugs can now be targeted for a specific set of patients resulting in higher efficacy. In return, the FDA requirements for the number of patients required for the phase I-III trials may be smaller, the cost and time for R&D will be reduced and the approval time will be shorter. Moderator: 1) Regina Au, MBA, MIM - Principal, Strategic Marketing Consultant at BioMarketing Insight Speakers: 1) David E. Hill, PhD - Research Scientist in Cancer Biology and Associate Director of the Center for Cancer Systems Biology (CCSB) at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI). 2) Glenn Miller, PhD - Vice President / Head of Personalized Medicine, Astra Zeneca 3) Steven Tregay, PhD - Founder, President, and CEO of Forma Therapeutics 4) FDA Speaker - TBD For details on the session and speakers go to http://biomarketinginsight.com/Events.htm AvaMed 2012: The MedTech Conference In addition to BIO International, Massachusetts will host this year's AdvaMed convention October 1-3 at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center.

    Urban Squash Citizenship Tour Boston, Connecticut, Jersey Shore, Philadelphia, Washington, DC July 15-23 Citizenship Tour For 22 high school and college squash players from Harlem, Roxbury, South Chicago, and similar communities throughout the United States, the Urban Squash Citizenship Tour will be a 9-day athletic and intellectual journey from Boston to Washington, DC with stops in Connecticut, New York City, the Jersey Shore, and Philadelphia. The students, who have been selected from the country’s 15 urban squash programs, will play squash, visit landmarks of American history, and meet with individuals in government, journalism, education and the nonprofit community. Among other highlights, students will meet UN Ambassador Samantha Power, Representative John Lewis of Georgia, and Environmental Defense Fund CEO Fredd Krupp. They will also play squash with Governor of Massachusetts Deval Patrick in Boston and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York in Washington, DC. The group will visit Walden Pond, sleep in dorms at Harvard University, walk the Freedom Trail in Boston, and tour the United Nations and New York Times Building in New York City and the U.S. Capitol and the White House in Washington, DC. Squash Squash was founded in the 1860s at the Harrow School, a private boarding school in England. Twenty years later the first court was built in the United States at the St. Paul’s School in Concord, New Hampshire. The game is played in 180 countries by more than 10 million people, and the countries where it is most popular include England, Australia, Malaysia, and Egypt. For most of its history in the United States, the sport has been played primarily at independent schools, Northeastern universities, and private clubs.
