Graduate Biotechnology Students from ¿ì²¥ÊÓƵ Markham Campus<\/a> attended the Life Sciences Ontario<\/a> (LSO)'s Ideas to Action Forum this week. From Jillian Paul<\/a> who unpacked Ontario\u2019s Health Innovation Pathway, to Paul Woods MD MS<\/a> and D.A. (Gus) Grant, AB, LLB, MD, CCFP, ICD.D<\/a> who emphasized the importance of graduates seeking front-line experience to Cate Murray<\/a> who inspiringly encouraged us to think critically about how Canada can strengthen the future of its biotechnology sector and to Suzanne McGurn<\/a> who grounded the conversation in the importance of working collectively toward common goals. We are grateful to LSO for hosting such a thought-provoking forum, shaping the future of biotech in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
