Listen " Qiagen CEO on learning to love diagnostics and why he’s worried we forgot lessons from the pandemic "
Episode Synopsis
In this week’s episode, Qiagen CEO Thierry Bernard gives us a look inside the diagnostics leader both today and a few years ago when it was responded to the world’s dire need for diagnostics.
Bernard takes us back to the early days of the pandemic, including his perspective on how different countries responded to the crisis. We’ll also hear his vision for the future of diagnostics including how Qiagen will make testing even simpler.
At the start of the show, Host Tom Salemi and Chris Newmarker, executive editor of life sciences, talk with Senior Editor Danielle Kirsh about the recently released Women in Medtech issue of Medical Design and Outsourcing magazine. Kirsh shares data she’s collected on how many women hold senior positions in the medical device industry. We’re seeing some progress, but not enough.
