周五,美国东部时间11月5日上午11点,我们欢迎AIMBE执行董事Milan Yager为我们带来“Buck Rogers和无尽的前沿:美国的创新设计缺陷”。关于研讨会巴克·罗杰斯和无尽的前沿:美国的创新设计缺陷每个人都喜欢创新。创新是美国过去在市场上、在床边、在战场上以及在未来的前沿占据全球主导地位的基石。然而,创新并没有发生。选择。优先级。领导导航。但时代不同了。美国是不同的。科学、健康和福利的无穷无尽的前沿是不同的。 Even the truth of vaccines is different. Can American ever again land a man on the moon or tackle a global pandemic? How is it possible the future is in question? Has science or politics failed us? Can America’s universities survive? Is there a future for young investigators? It isn’t as simple as rocket science. It isn’t science at all. The answers are in the design flaws threatening innovation, medical discovery, public health, and America’s competitiveness. Can Buck Rogers save us? Is there a bioengineer hero in this comic strip of real-life consequences?
