In this special two-guest episode of Joining the Dots, we explore the theme of taking research from idea to proof of concept and beyond. We're joined by Dr Jason Mellad, Co-Founder and CEO of life sciences venture capital fund Start Codon, and Dr Jeroen Verheyen, a venture builder and Co-Founder and CEO of Semarion, a biotech start-up that leverages microfabrication technology to build smart materials and develop novel cell assaying applications.

In Part 2 we take a deep dive into how to get ready for investment as a startup, what skills and talent are needed in biotech, and how to build your network.
