Hello,

 

The Chicago Biomedical Consortium is offering a one-year, paid, entrepreneurial fellowship for PhDs, MDs, and postdocs interested in moving biomedical innovations from academia into a biotech startup or industry. We are actively recruiting for the 2025 Cohort and are asking for help spreading the word about this opportunity.

Would you be willing to promote this fellowship opportunity to your institution by including it in your communication channels? I have attached a flyer and included a short description below for your convenience.

 

Thank you so much for your help.

 

Best wishes,

 

Dennis
