Innovation in Life Science with April Giles
Manage episode 424228402 series 2972126
April Giles gets to see things every day that most people don’t — people trying to change the world. Whether it’s predicting lung cancer, molecular wound care, or groundbreaking arthritis treatment, she works closely with organizations from startups to commercial enterprises that are focused on healthcare and life science innovation.
April Giles is the Vice President of Business Development for the Fitzsimons Innovation Community at the University of Colorado. The Fitzsimons Innovation Community is a place where health and life sciences companies are co-located on a collaborative campus and are close to the University of Colorado Medical School. Prior to this role, April was the president and CEO of the Colorado Bioscience Association and worked in the office of the Vice Chancellor of the University of Colorado Denver.
April joined the podcast to talk about her day-to-day work with innovative organizations, the unique pathway that brought her to the Fitzsimons Innovation Community, and why Portugal is the one place she’s been to more than anywhere — it’s probably not the reason you would think!
