SUMMARY:TAO: Making Work Work\, Part 2
DESCRIPTION:Work can be hard. It’s even harder when we are disconnected from the organization\, its values\, and our colleagues. And there’s no one size fits all solution. Leaders and stakeholders need to address the specific problems they are trying to solve with long term\, sustainable\, and scalable answers. \nIn partnership with the Portland Human Resource Management Association (PHRMA)\, we invite you to a 2 Part series on “Making Work Work.” In Part 2\, we will cover “Psychological Safety” and “Mentoring and Inclusion.” \nPsychological Safety \nPsychological safety is the belief that you won’t be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas\, questions\, concerns\, or mistakes. In this session\, we will hear from panelists about the importance of psychological safety and how it can positively or negatively affect culture\, team dynamics\, and future growth. \n– Learn how to share this concept with everyone in your organization \n– Develop training or ways to teach the importance of safety at work \n– Identify potential gaps or threats to the safety of your employees and develop plans to help solve these issues \nMentoring and Inclusion \nThis session will highlight the importance of providing personal and professional growth for all employees starting with on-boarding all the way to the creation of affinity groups. Panelists will share how mentorship and inclusion creates productivity\, longevity\, and trust between departments and leadership. \n– Create sustainable and scaleable ways to onboard new or junior talent \n– Develop standards for junior talent to learn and achieve deliverables \n– Ways to involve those that typically don’t get involved \n  \nHuman resource professionals will obtain SHRM credit for attending the sessions. \nFeatured Panelists \nShawna Shandy\nSenior Director\, Organizational Development\nRuvy \nAdriane Jones\nFounder & Principal Learning Architect\nAdriane E.

SUMMARY:Data\, Cyber\, & AI
DESCRIPTION:Data is precious (the new gold)\, and it needs to be protected as such. Data can also be crude (the new oil)\, and needs to be refined and curated in a secure manner into actionable information. This requires a balancing act: data that is readily accessible to the right shareholders\, while being kept secure from others. \nOn the flip side\, cybersecurity is replete with data sources that need to be collated into a holistic picture of the health of the systems being monitored. This requires a different balancing act: procure as much telemetry data as possible without getting too intrusive or overwhelmed by it. \nNow enter AI. How will new technologies effect and disrupt these existing systems? How will companies and individuals create best practices while the landscape continues to shift with little governance or oversight? \nIn this panel discussion\, our speakers will share the latest trends and how they see this space converging and where they see pitfalls. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:mRNA Is Never Naked\, Exploring RBP Target Space & Therapeutic Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:mRNA is never caught naked. RNA binding proteins (RBPs)\, act as vigilant guardians\, covering RNA within cells. The role of RBPs is multifaceted\, affecting mRNA processing\, localization\, life-time\, and translation\, working at steady state or leading to an instantaneous effect on their target mRNA upon stimuli. RBPs constitute an unexplored frontier\, specifically implicated in different diseases including cancer\, Neurodegeneration\, and inflammation. Over the last decade\, advancements in this novel target space have brought us to a juncture where the promise of these new therapeutic opportunities is greater than ever. Join our upcoming webinar to gain insights from expert speakers who have made significant advancements in the field of RBPs: \n-Definition of an RBP – domains and functional activity -Identification of novel RBPs and RBP-RNA interaction using machine learning -Delve into innovative strategies for discovering RBP modulators \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Scismic Webinar: 30 Seconds to Sell Yourself
DESCRIPTION:Do you have an elevator pitch to help you convey your career goals at networking events? If not\, Jayne Mattson\, author and career coach can help. \nNetworking is a key component of career advancement\, whether you are actively job-seeking or not. \nThe key to successful networking is being clear about what you want so that people you interact with know how to help\, who to connect you to\, and what actions to recommend. \nYou might be asked\, “What are you looking to do next?” and you might be tempted to leave your options wide open\, so you say something generic like\, “I want a role where I can use my skills and add value to a company.” But that doesn’t give people much information to recommend anything specific. In today’s job market\, people who could connect you with employers\, and employers themselves want you to be more specific. What skills do you want to use and what value will you bring to a company? \nJayne Mattson\, Career Coach\, will help you become clearer on what you are looking for by developing a 30-second commercial that will attract attention and inspire action. \nWhether you’re a job seeker\, entrepreneur\, or simply want to improve your self-presentation skills\, this event is for you! Don’t miss this opportunity to boost your personal brand and stand out from the crowd.

SUMMARY:Virtual Lunch and Learn: Startup Project Management Basics
DESCRIPTION:Project management is somewhat of a black box in startups.  When teams are small and single-focused\, there isn’t need for much more than a simple Gantt chart.  However\, as projects progress\, project management needs evolve.  Juggling design verification testing alongside clinical trial filings and clinical production/distribution\, for example\, requires a more sophisticated program level view than when it was all R&D.  As regulatory approval approaches and sales\, marketing\, manufacturing\, distribution\, supply chain\, etc. activities increase\, having dedicated project management resources makes sense.  I’ll outline how project management needs change as MedTech projects progress from concept through commercialization\, and the tools and resources required at each stage. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nTravis Rappleye \nTravis Rappleye is a MedTech startup project management expert\, with over two decades of experience managing a variety of projects through all phases of development\, including Class II\, Class III\, combination products\, and pharmaceuticals. \nRegister Here for Virtual Lunch and Learn
