<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div>The pharmaceutical industry is booming, and that’s good news for students of UMBC’s M.P.S. Biotechnology graduate program and the new Transitional Life Science Technology (TLST) program. In fact, the state of Maryland gives biotechnology incentive credits to help grow the biotechnology industry. That results in a lot of opportunity for our students. In this week’s Industry Roundup, we take a look at how the pharmaceutical industry is geared up for a race to find a cure that is silently killing at least 30 million Americans. We also take a look at developing an agile mind, AI in healthcare and cancer diagnosis, grabbing the attention of millennials and how AI is becoming typical in life.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://gritinaction.umbc.edu/industry-boom/?utm_campaign=industry%20roundup%20boom&amp;utm_source=my.umbc.edu&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=blog" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Read more...</a><br></div></div>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div>UMBC’s Bachelor of Science in Translational Life Science Technology (TLST) is a unique degree designed for students who want to be competitive in the bioscience world of today and tomorrow. Maryland has over 500 Biotech companies, and seventy percent of them are located in UMBC at The Universities of Shady Grove’s backyard in Montgomery County. In today’s Industry Roundup, we take a look at how one Maryland-based biohealth company is working towards a treatment for deadly diseases. We also look at ransomeware woes for the future, the successful Mars landing of NASA’s InSight, and the outrage from a gene-editing baby claim.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://gritinaction.umbc.edu/bioscience-mission/?utm_campaign=industry%20roundup%20bioscience%20mission&amp;utm_source=my.umbc.edu&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=blog" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Read article...</a><br></div></div>
