Genetic diagnostics represent the future of patient-tailored medicine. But the business opportunities and intellectual property issues are complex, and the best business model may not always be where you expect it. In "Molecular Diagnostics: New Business Models in Personalized Medicine," EMTM Prof. Scott Diamond explores this landscape and introduces new business models that are emerging for personalized medicine.

Scott Diamond is the University of Pennsylvania's Arthur E. Humphrey Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Bioengineering; Associate Director and Charter Member, Institute for Medicine and Engineering; Director, Biotechnology Program; and Director, Penn Center for Molecular Discovery. He also holds secondary appointments in Bioengineering and Pharmacology. He received his BS from Cornell University and his PhD from Rice University. Dr. Diamond has been a consultant for several biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and received the Colburn Award in 1999, the highest honor for those under 35 given by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE). Dr. Diamond has published over 60 papers and patents. His research interests are in non-viral gene transfer, thrombolytic therapy, thrombosis, endothelial mechanobiology, and functional proteomics technologies for phenotyping blood.

EMTM Presents is for anyone interested in trends and issues at the intersection of technology and business. The evening includes the opportunity to meet and talk with EMTM faculty, students and alumni at an informal reception that precedes the lecture and Q&A.

We welcome your interest, and invite you to learn more about the Executive Master's in Technology Management program.
