Dear Friends and Colleagues,
We will have a Health, Medicine, and Biotech related round-table discussion meeting on the 17th day of July, a much requested meeting over the past few months. We will have two discussion leaders, both well-known to the local high-tech Chinese entrepreneur community in the Great Boston area. They will lead us a fun night on subjects ranging from hot areas in biosciences to the practical matters on drug registration and approval in China. Their brief CVs are in the attachment.
Topic 1: Prelude to drug discovery: New faces, Same old stories
