Life Sciences Café June Edition


Thank you to everyone who joined us last Thursday at Grand Café de Stal. The room was full of energy, curiosity, and conversation as we explored the next wave of biotech innovation together.

A special thanks to our speakers:
🟠 Arian Khoshchin (AVIGI Therapeutics) – for introducing AVIGI’s approach to rationally designed, biomimetic medicines with potential across cancer, chronic, and infectious diseases.

🟠 Hoang Nguyen (QT Sense) – for showing how quantum sensing technology could transform how we understand and treat oxidative stress-related conditions.

From solid tumors to quantum-enabled insights, this month’s café highlighted how diverse and forward-thinking our biotech community truly is.
