SUMMARY:Fundamentals for Startups: Amit Chopra\, Innovation Advocate
DESCRIPTION:Fundamentals for Startups\, hosted by CoMotion Labs\, is open to anyone interested in learning about entrepreneurship and building a startup. From raising capital to scaling to exit strategies\, these presentations feature experienced entrepreneurs\, investors\, and industry experts who share startup-related information\, experience\, and insights. See our winter line up and register below. \nLEARN MORE AND REGISTER >>> \n\nAmit Chopra\, founder\, the Innovation Advocate\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuilding products the big-tech way: mindsets and methods every startup founder should know\n\n\n\n\n\nThis session distills nearly 30 years of building products inside Microsoft\, Google\, Meta\, and Amazon\, combined with hands-on mentoring of early-stage founders—into practical lessons entrepreneurs can immediately apply. \nAmit Chopra\, founder\, Innovation Advocate\, will share how the world’s most innovative companies think about product\, customers\, and long-term value\, and how founders can adopt those mindsets early\, without slowing themselves down. \nRather than theory\, the talk focuses on real frameworks used in Big Tech such as Amazon’s PR/FAQ\, Google’s design sprints\, and Meta’s Move fast approach\, and product excellence patterns across multiple companies to help founders avoid common early-stage traps around prioritization\, execution\, and scaling. \nThe goal is simple: help startups think beyond the MVP and build products that are resilient\, customer-driven\, and designed to scale borrowing the DNA of Big Tech without inheriting its bureaucracy.

SUMMARY:Rigor\, Reproducibility\, and Transparency (RRT) Seminar Series: Abhinav Nath\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:The Rigor\, Reproducibility\, and Transparency (RRT) Seminar Series is a series in collaboration with the Fred Hutch Cancer Center presented by faculty from each of the several ongoing training grants at Fred Hutch and UW. Presenters include faculty from training grants at the Fred Hutch and the UW. The series is in response to NIH-mandated RRT training for trainees on training grants\, F awards\, and K awards. Lectures focus on a detailed discussion of common or emerging methodologies with the aim of describing strengths\, limitations\, and pitfalls so those employing or interpreting the data gain a realistic sense of what can and cannot be learned. \nThe February seminar will feature Abhinav Nath\, PhD\, Associate Professor and Interim Chair\, Department of Medicinal Chemistry\, University of Washington. \n“Estimating Uncertainty in Model Parameters: Case Studies from Single-Molecule Fluorescence and Drug Discovery.” \nModel fitting – estimating the parameters of a model that best describe experimental observations – is a powerful and widely-used approach throughout the natural and biomedical sciences. An important consideration is understanding the level of uncertainty in the parameter values obtained by model fitting. In other words\, how confident are we in the output of a given model? This seminar will cover different methods of estimating this uncertainty\, including various resampling approaches. Problems will be illustrated using examples from biophysics and pharmacology\, including the interpretation of single-molecule fluorescence data and protein aggregation assays. \nQuestions: Please submit any questions you would like to ask prior to the seminar here. \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/87384453549?pwd=acrmm9YVh8C7au5NBdsfndTEpxS60i.1 \nMeeting ID: 873 8445 3549\nPasscode: 000408

SUMMARY:Bioscience Careers Seminar Series: Ami Yamamoto\, Omeros
DESCRIPTION:The Bioscience Careers Seminar Series is back by popular demand! Now led by the PhD Ambassadors in collaboration with the Office of Research and Graduate Education and Life Science Washington\, the series will allow graduate students to explore careers and build professional connections with biotech and pharmaceutical companies within Washington state. PhD training prepares you for many different jobs\, both inside and outside the academy. During this year’s Bioscience Careers Seminar Series\, we’ll highlight experiences of scientists who’ve transitioned from their PhD to various careers in one of our local companies. \n* To encourage networking and community building\, all sessions will be held in person at the UW SLU campus; recordings will be posted\, at a later date\, on the RGE website. \nAbout the Speaker \nAmi (pronounced “Ah-mee”) Yamamoto (she/her) received her B.S. in Genetics\, Cell Biology & Development at the University of Minnesota\, Twin Cities in 2015. During that time\, she worked in a lab studying microtubule dynamics. She then worked as a technician for 2 years in a lab studying stem cell therapies for muscular dystrophy. Ami started her PhD at the University of Washington Molecular & Cellular Biology (MCB) Program in 2017 and completed her dissertation in the lab of Kevin Cheung at Fred Hutch studying breast cancer metastasis. After she received her PhD in 2023\, she started working as a Scientist at Omeros Corporation\, a local Seattle biotech company. Although Omeros primarily focuses on complement related diseases\, her role is in the oncology team in Discovery\, developing cancer therapeutics. In her free time\, Ami enjoys cooking\, baking\, knitting\, playing pickleball\, and video games.
