A Deep Dive into the Intersection of Cardiac Research and Entrepreneurship
from DG Early-Morning Show · host Kyran To
In this episode, I talked to Dr. Leslie Leinwand, Chief Scientific Officer of the BioFrontiers Institute at the University of Colorado Boulder and serial entrepreneur. In addition to her lab, she is the founder of Myogen, acquired by Gilead Sciences, Myokardia, acquired by Bristol Myers Squibb, and her new startup, Kardigan. We talked about the behind the scenes stories of her different companies and the journey from incorporation to IPO. She also talked about her research in cardiac hypertrophy with pythons and how the NIH budget cuts will affect universities nationwide in America. She also mentioned her new startup, Kardigan, that just came out of stealth mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------Thanks to the sponsors:Audible: Use my link for a 30-day free trial: http://audibletrial.com/diamondgoatNewsly: https://newsly.mepromo code to receive a 1-month free premium subscription: EARLYMORNING Libysn: https://libsyn.compromo code: DG Dubby Energy: https://www.dubby.ggpromo code for 10% off: DIAMONDGOATOpus Clips: https://www.opus.pro/?via=diamondgoat----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Listen on:Podcast website: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dg-early-morning-show--5943922Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0EuhA6WyuerHtVAqcFrFeOPodcast YT channel clips: https://www.youtube.com/@dgearlymorningshowTiktok: @dgearlymorningshowApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dg-early-morning-show/id1575451533Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/f050b86c-1dad-4bc3-b12f-6aa5fa62438c Goodpods: https://goodpods.com/podcasts/dg-early-morning-show-211830RadioPublic: https://radiopublic.com/dg-earlymorning-show-WoML4rBreaker: https://www.breaker.audio/dg-early-morning-showReason: https://reason.fm/podcast/dg-earlymorning-show--------------------------------------Check out my other stuff:Instagram: @itzdiamondgoatTwitter: @lildiamondgoatMain YT channel: youtube.com/diamondgoatTiktok: @lildiamondgoatSoundcloud: @Lil DiamondgoatSpotify: @Lil DiamondgoatMerch store: https://diamondgoat.creator-spring.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dg-early-morning-show--5943922/support.
