When I run workshops on how to identify and hire great scientists for your lab or group, one of the screening items I talk about is whether the candidate can hear and act on useful feedback. Read more here..https://lnkd.in/en4YUq-B

In my earlier post I listed some of the many ways a senior leader can accelerate and magnify the impact of a comp sci function within a modern early stage biotech. However, I omitted probably the most important role - advocating for the needs of comp sci across the organization. Beyond the obvious (budgets, etc.) there is a much deeper aspect - advocating for how experiments can be done in a way that enables broader analysis and learning. There's a huge difference between having run a lot of assays and having data that's fit for purpose for ML/AI applications - and most organizations don't have an understanding of why there is a difference or how to overcome it embedded within the C-suite. It likely requires significant changes in how science is executed, from involvement of comp sci in the experimental planning stages up to and including changes in organizational structure (e.g. a screening group with embedded comp sci representation). An advisor or fractional CD(S)O/CAIO can help plan and execute a transition strategy to get a place where you can realistically leverage the data being generated for future learning. Get in touch if you'd like to explore how that could work for you!

What hidden gem in your R&D pipeline could be the next game-changer? Did you know? Multinational corporations invest over $700 billion annually in research and development. Did you know? According to the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES), U.S. research and experimental development (R&D) reached $789.1 billion in 2021, with an estimated increase to $885.6 billion in 2022. This figure represents a wealth of innovative ideas, breakthrough technologies, and potential solutions to some of the world's most pressing challenges. However, not all of these innovations make it to market. At Innventure, we're fascinated by this potential. Our focus is on exploring ways to bring select technologies from the lab to market, where they have the opportunity to create value and address significant needs. We believe that by collaborating with multinational corporations, we can help identify high-potential innovations that align with market demands and may benefit from further development. What are your thoughts on the future of R&D in the U.S.? #corporateinnovation #technologycommercialization #innovationstrategies

Not all superheroes wear capes, some wear (lab) coats! In the #SmartScientist series, our experts Anna Maria, Arnd, Liqun, Andreas and other BASF researchers, give insights behind the scenes of their labs. They are part of our R&D team of around 10,000 colleagues who are working around the world to find solutions for the challenges of today and tomorrow. From #circularity to #electrochemistry, #biodegradability or #datascience, I am always impressed to see in how many different areas our teams demonstrate their expertise in – but see for yourself in the interviews.

🔬 A Peek into our R&D process - Lena Moeller, PhD “As the R&D manager of eNUVIO, I'm thrilled to give you a glimpse into our #ResearchAndDevelopment process. I can’t give away what we’re currently working on, but at the heart of the journey are the scientists of our global research community — their needs and insights drive our relentless pursuit of pushing the boundaries of possibility. Our journey begins with identifying the most pressing needs in the community. It’s the requests and feedback that decide what we’ll focus on next. Once we have a clear vision of what the community needs, our R&D team dives deep into scientific literature and latest manufacturing technologies. Countless hours are spent coming up with potential solutions, refining concepts, and rigorously testing every aspect. Sometimes it’s straightforward, but more often it’s an iterative process. Our journey doesn't end with the launch of a product. We love to hear about user experiences, and we continue improving our devices to make them even more impactful and easy to use. So, when you see our latest offerings, know that they are a result of team effort: the needs of the research community combined with the we’ll-figure-it-out-and-make-it-happen mentality of our R&D team. Together, we're shaping the future of scientific innovation. It's incredibly rewarding to witness the positive impact our collaborative efforts have on advancing research and driving meaningful change.” #RnD #Innovation #LabOnChip #Microfluidics #Science #Research #ScienceDrivenSolutions

The response to my last post has been overwhelming—thank you to everyone who engaged, shared, or reached out with questions and support. This journey started with a bold idea: what if we could redefine energy systems without relying on traditional fusion or fission? Theoretical models now show that even with inherent losses, a net gain of 12% is achievable by combining photon recycling, advanced materials, and occasional quantum-level boosts. But this isn’t just about numbers—it’s about proving what’s possible. Here’s where I am now: The core concept works in theory. No fusion. No fission. Just physics, precision, and ambition. The next step is building a prototype to test photon recycling and amplification in a controlled setup. Collaboration has already begun, but there’s room for more minds, ideas, and expertise. To those who believe in pushing boundaries: I’m calling for anyone with a background in optics, materials science, or energy systems—let’s connect and explore how to turn this into a working model. Together, we can break the barriers and redefine what's possibl

Thrilled to have coordinated panel discussions with US Patent Fidelity Investments Recipients - Sunil Gurusiddappa , Saurabh Singh Kriti Verma. Discussions were truly inspiring and very relatable to the audience as the thoughts were articulated in plain simple English language. Sharing key take aways (Thank you Amy Inman for capturing) 1)In our day-to-day job when we put our heads down, how do we think about our job in an innovative way. 2)Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford commencement speech - connecting the dots by looking at what happened in the past to come up with an innovative idea for the future 3)It's important to see things with a different lens, and think in a different way 4)What value can I bring to the table. 5)Believe in yourself. 6)Even if you aren't technical, find a way to convey your ideas and needs, so technical folks can help. Congratulations Sunil, Saurabh and Kriti for your accomplishment. 👏 👏 Amy Inman Amit Gupta Noufal A. David Ammer @#fidelityassociate
