Digital Health Awards Will Honor Tech
That Improves Healthcare
|
|
UC San Francisco and Health Hub have announced the launch of the first annual
UCSF Digital Health Awards
. These awards will honor outstanding new digital technologies that not only dramatically improve healthcare but do so by means that reduce costs and improve access to medical innovations.

GlaxoSmithKline Taps UC’s CRISPR Expertise to Speed Drug Discovery
|
|
The pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline (
GSK
) today announced a five-year collaboration with UC Berkeley and UCSF to establish a laboratory where state-of-the-art CRISPR techniques will be used to explore how gene mutations cause disease, potentially yielding new technologies using CRISPR that would rapidly accelerate the discovery of new medicines.

No Magic Bullet. No Single Target.
|
|
By mid-century, the number of people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases is expected to double. With the recent string of late stage clinical trial failures in Alzheimer’s disease, it is still an open question as to whether treatments can be developed for a disease that is definitively diagnosed post-mortem.
Scientists are coming to realize that the hope for new treatments capable of changing the course of disease lies in developing innovative approaches that deepen our understanding of the early biological underpinnings of neurodegeneration.
Innovation Ventures interviewed three UCSF investigators doing just that.
