The Next Frontiers in Biotech

The University of California has selected 6 entrepreneurs to pitch at the 2021 UC Biotech Demo Day. These startups are at the cutting edge of innovation for gene editing therapy, antiobiotics, AI diagnostics, medical devices, and on the cusp of a game-changing spinal implant system to correct pediatric scoliosis.
