Pitches From Postdocs

A science showcase that featured breakthrough technology

& its potential impact

About The Event

Flow sensors to improve beer production, nanocaged enzymes to peel apart plastics, and radiation monitoring and mapping to assist decontamination of nuclear plants... this event featured the scientists behind these technologies!

 

The University of California and Los Alamos National Lab teamed up for a Postdoc Entrepreneur Fellowship program. The program supports early-career scientists as they explore applications and evaluate market opportunities for their technologies.

 

The 90-minute free virtual event was open to the public and featured pitches from each scientist, an interactive Q&A session, and a networking opportunity. You can rewatch the event here.
