Join us for a special live video AMA tomorrow at 12:30pm PDT regarding Coronavirus with guest Andre Watson, a Biomedical Engineer working on a vaccine for Coronavirus.
We're going to discuss the impact of Coronavirus on the general public and especially at work. Please have your questions ready or join the live stream.
We will broadcast the live stream at facebook.com/groups/hireclub
Andre is CEO and Founder of Ligandal, a breakthrough nanomedicine company with the first commercial approach for coupling gene editing tools such as CRISPR, as well as RNA and DNA, to cell-specific targeting molecules (ligands).
The company is also developing ultra-rapid therapeutics and vaccines for outbreaks such as the novel 2019 coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2).
He is an inventor on 43 issued or pending patents for delivery of nucleic acids and proteins with cell-specific targeting molecules, with a particular focus on genome engineering and RNA delivery for a variety of therapeutic applications.
His mission is to enable a world where we can program biological systems at will, to treat disease and extend healthspan.
He received his Biomedical Engineering in Biomaterials & Gene Delivery from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
