| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | 2017 ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 1. REGIONAL LIFE SCIENCES STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT-"PATH TO 2025" THE KANSAS CITY AREA LIFE SCIENCES INSTITUTE (KCALSI) ENGAGED DELOITTE TO EXECUTE A STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT OF THE REGIONAL LIFE SCIENCES IN 2015. THE PROCESS UTILIZED THE "COLLECTIVE IMPACT" MODEL FROM STANFORD UNIVERSITY AND WAS LED BY AN EXPERIENCED STEERING COMMITTEE COMPRISED OF COMMUNITY AND BUSINESS LEADERS IN THE LIFE SCIENCES. THE COMMITTEE LOOKED AT BOTH DRIVERS OF CLUSTER ENHANCEMENT AND REGIONAL SCIENTIFIC STRENGTHS. THE REGIONAL VISION DEVELOPED THROUGH THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS STATES, "THE KANSAS CITY REGION IS A GLOBAL LEADER AT THE NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH BENEFITING ALL OUR CITIZENS AND THE ECONOMY." THESE NEXUS OPPORTUNITIES WILL BE DIFFERENT FOR EACH STRATEGIC AREA AND WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM USING NATURALLY OCCURRING CANCER IN DOGS FOR ACCELERATING HUMAN DISCOVERIES TO ADVANCING OUR STRENGTH IN HEALTH IT AND OUTCOMES RESEARCH. FOUR AREAS OF SCIENTIFIC STRENGTH WERE IDENTIFIED: ANIMAL HEALTH, CANCER RESEARCH AND CARE, NEUROSCIENCE, AND HEALTH IT AND OUTCOMES RESEARCH. ADDITIONALLY, FOUR DRIVERS OF CLUSTER ENHANCEMENT WERE IDENTIFIED: COLLABORATION, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, CAPITAL FORMATION, AND MESSAGING AND MARKETING. TASK FORCES WERE CREATED FOR EACH CLUSTER DRIVER AND WORK GROUPS FOR EACH SCIENTIFIC AREA. THE WORK OF THESE GROUPS WILL BE CRITICAL FOR THE SUCCESS OF OUR ENTIRE ECOSYSTEM AND ENABLE US TO BE MORE GLOBALLY COMPETITIVE. FY2017 PROGRESS IMPLEMENTATION OF THE "PATH TO 2025" IS DESCRIBED BELOW. WHILE ALL WORKING GROUPS WERE RECOGNIZING POWERFUL SYNERGIES WITHIN THE STRATEGY AND EXPLORING OPPORTUNITIES, TWO SIGNIFICANT THEMES FRAMED MOST OF OUR ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT 2017: -THE NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH -OUTCOMES RESEARCH AND HEALTH IT THE NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH: THE NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO ADVANCE HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH BY BRINGING THESE SECTORS TOGETHER AND LOOKING FOR OVERLAP AND SYNERGY. EXAMPLES OF HUMAN/ANIMAL HEALTH NEXUS OPPORTUNITIES PURSUED IN 2017 INCLUDE: -REGIONAL COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY PROGRAM. ONLY 11% OF CANCER DRUGS EFFECTIVE IN MICE HAVE BEEN APPROVED FOR TREATMENT IN PEOPLE. MEANWHILE, VETERINARIANS HAVE USED HUMAN CHEMOTHERAPEUTICS AS OFF-LABEL CANCER TREATMENTS FOR DOGS AND CATS FOR DECADES NOTING SIMILAR EFFICACY AND SIDE EFFECTS AS IN HUMANS ACROSS A RANGE OF TUMOR TYPES. THE CANCER RESEARCH AND CARE WORKING GROUP, LED BY DR. ROY JENSEN, BEGAN PLANS TO ACCELERATE CANCER THERAPEUTICS FOR PEOPLE AND PETS. THE REGIONAL COMPARATIVE ONCOLOGY PROGRAM IS AIMED AT FACILITATING TRANSLATIONAL CANCER DRUG DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL MEDICINE. ONE EFFORT BEING PLANNED IS A VETERINARY ONCOLOGIST WITH CONCURRENT APPOINTMENTS IN THE REGIONAL VETERINARY SCHOOLS AND HUMAN CANCER CENTERS WOULD FACILITATE CLINICAL RESEARCH IN CLIENT-OWNED DOGS AND CATS WITH CANCER AS A TOOL TO SPEED UP HUMAN "PROOF OF CONCEPT" DRUG RESEARCH. -AS A DIRECT OUTCOME OF THE COLLABORATE2CURE SERIES ON CANCER IMMUNOTHERAPY, A CLINICAL PARTNERSHIP WAS DEVELOPED BETWEEN CHILDREN'S MERCY AND ELIAS ANIMAL HEALTH/TVAX BIOMEDICAL TO IMPACT PEDIATRIC ONCOLOGY. BIOLOGY OF PEDIATRIC OSTEOSARCOMA (BONE CANCER) AND CANINE OSTEOSARCOMA ARE VERY SIMILAR AND GENE EXPRESSION IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL BETWEEN CHILDREN AND DOGS. THIS PEDIATRIC ONCOLOGY PROGRAM WILL ENHANCE THE VALUE OF THIS TRANSLATIONAL OPPORTUNITY. -THE ANIMAL HEALTH WORKING GROUP IDENTIFIED A GAP AND A TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY FOR THE REGION. LED BY DR. RALPH RICHARDSON, K-STATE OLATHE CEO, AND DARYL PINT, CEVA CEO, THE GROUP RECOGNIZED THAT ANIMAL HEALTH RESEARCHERS LACKED A COMPREHENSIVE INTEROPERABLE DATABASE. THEY BEGAN DEVELOPING A PLAN LINKING ANIMAL HEALTH AND HUMAN HEALTH DATA VIA THE CERNER FHIR PLATFORM. NAMED "1DATA", THIS TRANSLATIONAL DATABASE PROVIDES A PLATFORM FOR MINING SHARED DATA FROM MANY SOURCES INCLUDING PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT FOR PEOPLE AND ANIMALS, CLINICAL RECORDS, PROTEIN INTERACTIONS, GENOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL DATA. THE PROJECT IS LED BY DR. JERRY WYCKOFF, UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-KANSAS CITY (UMKC) PROFESSOR, AND DR. JIM RIVIERA, K-STATE PROFESSOR EMERITUS. THE OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE DATABASE ARE LIMITLESS. AMONG THEM IS THE GOAL TO SYSTEMATICALLY CHANGE THE REGULATORY PROCESS BY USING BIOLOGICAL MODELING AND SIMULATIONS TO ACCELERATE DRUG APPROVALS; ACCELERATE DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL THERAPEUTICS AND DIAGNOSTICS; AND TO TRAIN STUDENTS IN BIOINFORMATICS, MODELING AND ANALYTICAL METHODS. THE 1DATA PLATFORM CAN BE USED BY RESEARCHERS, INDUSTRY, HEALTH PROVIDERS, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO IMPACT THE DRUGS AND TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE TO HELP SAVE LIVES AND IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR HUMANS AND ANIMALS. -KCALSI BEGAN DEVELOPING THE NEXUS PROOF OF CONCEPT (POC) FUND AIMED AT ACCELERATING PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT FOR HUMANS BY USING ANIMALS WITH NATURALLY OCCURRING DISEASE. HISTORICALLY, HUMAN HEALTH RESEARCHERS AND VETERINARY RESEARCHERS HAVE WORKED IN SILOS. THE PHARMACEUTICAL JUSTIFICATION FOR THE SEPARATION WAS PRESUMED REGULATORY HURDLES. AS OUR DISEASE UNDERSTANDING ADVANCES, MORE PEOPLE ARE APPRECIATING THE OPPORTUNITY AT THE NEXUS RATHER THAN THE HURDLES. THE FUND WILL PROVIDE PROOF OF CONCEPT FUNDING TO ADVANCE NOVEL TECHNOLOGIES TO MARKET THROUGH STUDIES NECESSARY TO DE-RISK THEM AND ATTRACT INVESTORS. TECHNOLOGY CONCEPTS WILL BE SOURCED FROM ENTREPRENEURS, UNIVERSITIES AND FROM INDUSTRY WHERE CONCEPT VALIDATION IS NEEDED TO ATTRACT ANGEL INVESTORS, VENTURE CAPITAL, OR LICENSING BY AN INDUSTRY PARTNER. MOST FUND INVESTMENTS WILL LIKELY BE LESS THAN $100K DEPENDING ON THE TECHNOLOGY AND STAGE GATES PROPOSED TO ACHIEVE PROOF OF CONCEPT. THE LACK OF POC FUNDING WAS IDENTIFIED IN KCALSI'S PATH TO 2025 REPORT, CONFIRMING SIMILAR FINDINGS IN KCSOURCELINK'S WE CREATE CAPITAL ASSESSMENT OF REGIONAL CAPITAL AVAILABILITY. THE NEXUS POC FUND HELPS CLOSE A SIGNIFICANT GAP IN THE REGIONAL ENTREPRENEURIAL ECOSYSTEM. OUTCOMES RESEARCH AND HEALTH IT OUTCOMES RESEARCH AND HEALTH IT PRINCIPLES CAN BE APPLIED IN ALL ASPECTS OF HEALTH AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT. EXAMPLES OF ACTIVITIES PURSUED IN 2017 INCLUDE: -THE NEURODEVELOPMENT WORKING GROUP BEGAN CONSIDERING AN OUTCOMES/HEALTH IT RESEARCH APPROACH TO BETTER DEFINE AUTISM SPECTRAL DISORDERS (ASD) WITH MORE CONSISTENT DIAGNOSTICS TO STEER THE TREATMENT APPROACH THAT WORKS BEST IN CHILDREN WITH ASD. THIS IS A CLASSIC OUTCOMES RESEARCH PROBLEM WHERE VARIABLE DIAGNOSTICS AND TREATMENTS ARE CONFOUNDING OUTCOMES FOR CHILDREN WITH ASD. -THE OUTCOMES RESEARCH / HEALTH IT WORKING GROUP, LED BY DICK FLANIGAN, CERNER PRESIDENT, AND DR. JOHN SPERTUS, SAINT LUKE'S HEALTH SYSTEM, UMKC, DEVELOPED A VISION STATEMENT TO FRAME THEIR WORK STATING, "THE KANSAS CITY REGION IS DEVELOPING A VALUE-BASED COLLABORATIVE HEALTHCARE ECOSYSTEM TO ESTABLISH KANSAS CITY AS 'THE OUTCOMES RESEARCH REGION' IN THE NATION." OUTCOMES RESEARCH RECOGNIZES PATIENT VARIATION ACROSS A POPULATION AND IDENTIFIES INDIVIDUAL PATIENT RISKS. IT PROVIDES A PERSONALIZED MEDICINE APPROACH DELIVERING TO PHYSICIANS THE TOOLS AND DATA TO TREAT A PATIENT AS AN INDIVIDUAL, INSTEAD OF TREATING THEM AS A MEAN OF THE POPULATION. -TO CREATE THIS ECOSYSTEM, THE GROUP RECOGNIZED THE NEED TO ENGAGE A CRITICAL MASS OF REGIONAL HOSPITALS IN AN OUTCOMES PROJECT TO DEMONSTRATE THE OPPORTUNITY IN VALUE-BASED HEALTHCARE. KEY ELEMENTS WERE IDENTIFIED FOR DEVELOPING A SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES PROJECT TO ASSESS POTENTIAL CANDIDATE PROJECTS. AFTER CONSIDERABLE DELIBERATIONS, THE WORKING GROUP SELECTED PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION (PCI) USING THE E-PRISM TOOL DEVELOPED BY HEALTH OUTCOME SCIENCES. THE E-PRISM TOOL USES OVER 90 PARAMETERS FROM A PATIENT'S ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD TO DETERMINE BLEEDING AND ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY (AKI) RISKS FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURE AND PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION TO THE INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGIST TO CUSTOMIZE TREATMENT FOR EACH PATIENT. SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS TO THE HOSPITAL ARE REALIZED IN AVOIDING ADVERSE EVENTS - OVER $8,000 PER PATIENT FOR BLEEDING, OVER $10,000 FOR EACH AKI EVENT, AND OVER $100,000 PER PATIENT FOR KIDNEY DIALYSIS, NOT TO MENTION THE BENEFIT FOR THE PATIENT. AT BARNES JEWISH HOSPITAL IN ST LOUIS, BLEEDING RATES AND AKI RATES DECREASED FROM ABOUT 8-10% AT BASELINE TO 2% WITH THE E-PRISM TOOL. ADDITIONALLY, THE HOSPITAL SAVES OVER $3,500,000 ANNUALLY IN THIS SINGLE PROCEDURE. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | (CONTINUED) 2. COLLABORATE2CURE KCALSI CREATED THE COLLABORATE2CURE PROGRAM WITH THE GOAL OF STIMULATING REGIONAL SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION AND DEVELOPING INNOVATIVE WAYS TO SOLVE SCIENTIFIC CHALLENGES. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES A PLATFORM FOR COLLABORATION, ALLOWING SCIENTISTS IN THE KC REGION TO SHARE THEIR RESEARCH AND ULTIMATELY COMPETE FOR FUNDING. KCALSI IDENTIFIES A TOPIC WITH SIGNIFICANT INTEREST TO RESEARCHERS WHICH ALIGNS WELL WITH REGIONAL EXPERTISE, AND THEN COORDINATES A SERIES OF PRESENTATIONS FROM RESEARCHERS OVER THE COURSE OF SEVERAL MONTHS. THE 2017 COLLABORATE2CURE SERIES FOCUSED ON "MITOCHONDRIAL DYSFUNCTION." SCIENTISTS, CLINICIANS, STUDENTS, AND ENTREPRENEURS GATHERED OVER 14 WEEKS TO SHARE AND GAIN KNOWLEDGE SURROUNDING MITOCHONDRIAL DYSFUNCTION. MITOCHONDRIA ARE THE ENERGY POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL AND ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING MORE THAN 90% OF THE ENERGY NEEDED BY THE BODY TO SUSTAIN LIFE AND SUPPORT ORGAN FUNCTIONS. DISEASES LINKED TO FAILING MITOCHONDRIA INCLUDE ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE, ALS, OBESITY, HEART DISEASE, AND NEUROLOGICAL DISEASES. THE MITOCHONDRIAL DYSFUNCTION SERIES WAS CO-CHAIRED BY DRS. ABDULBAKI "BAKI "AGBAS FROM KANSAS CITY UNIVERSITY AND RUSSELL SWERDLOW FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS MEDICAL CENTER. AFTER THE SERIES, A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS WAS RELEASED TO SUPPORT COLLABORATIVE, RESEARCH PROJECTS SPAWNED FROM THE SERIES. THE WINNING PROJECT RECEIVED $50,000 FOR ONE YEAR TO COMPLETE THE RESEARCH PROJECT. 3. WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT WAS IDENTIFIED IN KCALSL'S PATH TO 2025 REPORT AS A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO AND CRITICAL WEAKNESS IN THE REGIONAL LIFE SCIENCE CLUSTER. KC RISING, A CIVIC INITIATIVE UNDERWAY ACROSS THE KANSAS CITY COMMUNITY, ESTABLISHED A HUMAN CAPITAL WORK GROUP TO ADDRESS WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ISSUES. RECOGNIZING THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEVERAGE A PARALLEL EFFORT, KCALSI INTEGRATED ITS EFFORTS AND EXPERTISE WITH KC RISING TO DEVELOP A REGIONAL PLAN OF ACTION. 2017 ACTIVITIES IN SUPPORT OF WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT INCLUDED THE FOLLOWING: -THE TALENT TO INDUSTRY EXCHANGE (TIE) CONCEPT WAS INTRODUCED TO IMPROVE LABOR SUPPLY IN KEY INDUSTRY SECTORS AND GROW THE WORKFORCE NECESSARY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN COMPANIES IN THE KANSAS CITY REGION. ENGAGEMENT WITH LOCAL LIFE SCIENCE COMPANY LEADERS AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS LAUNCHED IN 2016. THE LIFE SCIENCES TIE LABOR ANALYSIS WAS PUBLISHED IN FEBRUARY 2017. ONE OF THE KEY CHARGES WAS TO ESTABLISH A REGIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (RAC). MUCH LIKE A PLATFORM TECHNOLOGY, THE RAC CAN ASSESS A VARIETY OF WORKFORCE ISSUES AND IDENTIFY EDUCATION SOLUTIONS MORE RAPIDLY AND EFFICIENTLY, TO MEET INDUSTRY NEEDS. -BIOINFORMATICS WILL BE THE FIRST FOCUS AREA FOR THE RAC, AS THIS INDUSTRY SECTOR STRUGGLES TO ACQUIRE ADEQUATELY SKILLED WORKERS. WITH GUIDANCE FROM INDUSTRY, NEW CURRICULA WILL BE THE DELIVERABLE. -CONTRACT RESEARCH ORGANIZATIONS WILL BE THE SECOND FOCUS AREA. GIVEN THE EVER-CHANGING NATURE OF THEIR WORKFLOW, THIS INDUSTRY SECTOR IS RIPE FOR USING STACKABLE CREDENTIALS TO MEET TRAINING NEEDS. THESE SHORT-TERM CREDENTIALS CAN BE "STACKED," LEADING TO TWO AND FOUR-YEAR DEGREES. -THE EMERGING ENTREPRENEUR PROOF OF CONCEPT FUND (E2POC) PROGRAM HARVESTS ORPHAN TECHNOLOGIES DEVELOPED BY HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS COMPETING IN REGIONAL STEM COMPETITIONS. TO INCREASE ENTREPRENEURS IN THE REGION, THE E2POC PROGRAM WILL ENGAGE STUDENT INVENTORS BY PROVIDING ENTREPRENEURSHIP RESOURCES, ASSISTING WITH BUSINESS PLAN DEVELOPMENT, ASSESSING MARKETS, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, AND ACCESSING CAPITAL. APPROXIMATELY 3 - 5 SUCCESSFUL APPLICANTS ANNUALLY WILL RECEIVE $5,000 SCHOLARSHIPS AND THE E2POC WILL FUND THE PROOF OF CONCEPT WORK AND PATENT PROSECUTION. THE ENTREPRENEUR WILL BE PAIRED WITH BUSINESS MENTORS TO AUGMENT THEIR ENTREPRENEURIAL EDUCATION. ADDITIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS WILL BE GRANTED, UP TO $20,000, AS THE PRODUCT MOVES TOWARD COMMERCIALIZATION. THE E2POC HAS TWO IMPORTANT OUTCOMES: (1) TRAIN YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS, AND (2) ADVANCE INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES TO MARKET BY DIRECTLY FUNDING THE TECHNICAL STUDIES NECESSARY TO DE-RISK THEM TO ATTRACT INVESTORS. 4. KCALSI'S RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT GRANT PROGRAMS THE KCALSI RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT GRANTS PROGRAM REPRESENTS ONE OF OUR OLDEST AND MOST POPULAR PROGRAMS. GRANTS ARE AWARDED TO GENERATE PRELIMINARY DATA THAT SUPPORT SUBMISSION OF MAJOR MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH PROPOSALS TO GOVERNMENT OR PRIVATE FUNDING AGENCIES. APPLICANTS RECEIVE WRITTEN PEER REVIEWS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEIR PROJECT RECEIVED FUNDING, TO HELP THEM IMPROVE FUTURE GRANT APPLICATIONS. THIS IS A VALUED SERVICE APPRECIATED BY ALL TEN STAKEHOLDERS. FROM 2007 TO 2017, KCALSI HAS MANAGED 77 GRANTS TOTALING $3.7 MILLION. ON AVERAGE, FOR EVERY $1 INVESTED IN GRANTS, $9.10 HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE REGION FROM FOLLOW-ON FEDERAL SOURCES. IMPORTANTLY, THIS NUMBER SHOULD BE VIEWED CONSERVATIVELY AS NO INFORMATION IS READILY AVAILABLE REGARDING GRANTS MADE TO REGIONAL SCIENTISTS BY PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS AND PATIENT ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS. THE 2017 KCALSI RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT GRANT PORTFOLIO INCLUDES: BLUE KC OUTCOMES RESEARCH GRANTS FOCUS ON IMPROVING THE HEALTHCARE QUALITY, REDUCING COSTS, IMPROVING EFFECTIVENESS OR EFFICIENCY OF THE HEALTHCARE PROCESS, AND/OR IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE. PARTNERING WITH BLUE CROSS AND BLUE SHIELD OF KANSAS CITY, KCALSI AWARDED THREE GRANTS OF UP TO $50,000 EACH IN MAY 2016. THE GRANTS WERE PRESENTED TO THREE RESEARCH SCIENTISTS, TWO AT CHILDREN'S MERCY AND ONE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS MEDICAL CENTER. PAUL PATTON CHARITABLE TRUST GRANTS FOCUS ON GENETIC DISEASES MAINLY AFFECTING CHILDREN. THE FUNDS FOR THIS PROGRAM ARE PROVIDED BY THE PAUL PATTON TRUST, TED C. MCCARTER, WILLIAM EVANS JR. AND BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., TRUSTEE. KCALSI AWARDED GRANTS OF UP TO $50,000 TO THREE RESEARCHERS, TWO AT CHILDREN'S MERCY, AND ONE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI. NEXUS OF HUMAN AND ANIMAL HEALTH GRANTS FOCUS ON BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH PROJECTS, RANGING FROM USING NATURALLY OCCURRING DISEASES IN ANIMALS AS A MODEL FOR ASSESSING HUMAN DRUG EFFICACY TO REPURPOSING HUMAN DRUGS FOR USE IN ANIMAL DISEASES. FUNDED BY THE HALL FAMILY FOUNDATION, KCALSI AWARDED $50,000 GRANTS EACH TO FIVE RESEARCHERS, THREE AT KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY, ONE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI, AND ONE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. COLLABORATE2CURE GRANTS ARE SPECIFICALLY USED TO SUPPORT NEW COLLABORATIONS AND INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO SOLVING PROBLEMS SPAWNED FROM THE COLLABORATE2CURE PROGRAM SERIES. KCALSI AWARDED TWO $50,000 GRANTS EACH TO RESEARCHERS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AND KANSAS CITY UNIVERSITY. 5. 2017 ANNUAL DINNER AND "SCIENCE TO ART" AUCTION CLOSE TO 500 COMMUNITY LEADERS, SCIENTIFIC LEADERS, AND COLLEGE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ATTENDED THE SEPTEMBER 19, 2017 KCALSI ANNUAL DINNER. NINA TANDON, FOUNDER AND CEO OF EPIBONE, PROVIDED THE CAPTIVATING KEYNOTE PRESENTATION EMPHASIZING SEVERAL WAYS THE AUDIENCE COULD HELP ADVANCE OUR FUTURE. HER PRESENTATION PROVIDED EXAMPLES OF INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO TISSUE ENGINEERING. "IT'S VERY EXCITING BECAUSE WHAT WE'RE DOING IS CONNECTING WITH WHAT THE BODY DOES NATURALLY," SHE SAID. DR. TANDON URGED THE AUDIENCE TO LEVERAGE THE UNIQUE STRENGTHS OF THIS REGION, E.G., THE ANIMAL HEALTH CORRIDOR, CONCENTRATION OF CONTRACT RESEARCH ORGANIZATIONS (CROS), ETC.
