A big few days for the Australian life sciences community officially kick off in Melbourne today, with AusBioInvest at the Park Hyatt Melbourne and a welcome event for the Korean delegation attending AusBiotech 2024, hosted by MTPConnect. The excitement then shifts to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre tomorrow, where you will find the Alithia team on the Victorian Government's Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions booth throughout the duration of the AusBiotech conference. If you are attending the event, our Founder and Director, A/Prof Tina Soulis, and International Business Development Manager, Majella Hamilton, would love to hear about your projects and how we might support them. Please come and say hello! #AusBiotech2024 #lifesciences #biotechnology #conference #innovation #investment #melbourne #australia

The opportunity to engage with and learn from international counterparts, while promoting the advantages of the Australian life sciences ecosystem, is something we always value. This week, we have been doing just that in China, thanks to the fantastic support of the City of Melbourne, Global Victoria, the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), 360biolabs, a BioAgilytix company and Nucleus Network. We also extend our gratitude to the Chinese companies that have taken time to share their knowledge and projects with us. A valuable visit! #lifesciences #biotechnology #china #australia

What do the topics of omics and advanced therapies, capital attraction, complex manufacturing and medtech have in common? They are all key themes in the latest edition of Australasian BioTechnology, the official journal of AusBiotech, that we encourage everyone to read via the link below. Of note is the article, “Strategic Financing: Alternative Funding Models in Biotechnology”, which provides some valuable insights on how to secure project support in a tough economic environment. Alithia is also proud to have a presence in this issue, as it delivers a great opportunity to raise awareness of the specialist services we can offer, as well as foster new connections within the industry.

Vale Dr Sianna Panagiotopoulos Alithia Life Sciences colleagues and our Founder A/Prof Tina Soulis ALITHIA LIFE SCIENCES (CRO) were very saddened to hear about the sudden passing of our friend and colleague Dr Sianna Panagiotopoulos this past week in Melbourne. Sianna was a long time friend and colleague and was pivotal in her role leading the Research and Ethics office at Austin Health for many years. A respected researcher in her own right Sianna always had a smile on her face and was a very knowledgeable and diplomatic professional. In the last few years Sianna was enjoying her retirement and travel. Rest in Peace dearest Sianna. Αιώνια η Μνήμη ❤️🙏

Industry events play a crucial role in the health and biotechnology sectors, offering unparalleled opportunities for collaboration, learning and growth. These gatherings, whether local, national, or international, serve as key platforms for project and relationship management, networking, business development and professional education. Alithia is proud to have a presence at many of these events, such as the upcoming AusBiotech Conference, MTPConnect industry events, SAHMRI's "Spring into Clinical Trials," and international gatherings like US BIO International Convention and BIOHK. At these events, Alithia engages with a diverse range of stakeholders, including researchers, industry leaders, regulators and investors, to stay at the forefront of innovation and foster meaningful collaborations. While the specific audience may vary depending on the event, the overarching goals remain consistent. We focus on building strong relationships, expanding our network, and exploring new business opportunities, all while staying up-to-date on the latest trends and advancements in the health and biotech sectors. Attending international events adds a layer of value by allowing Alithia to showcase the strengths and benefits of the Australian health and biotechnology ecosystem. Australia has earned a reputation for its robust regulatory environment, world-class research infrastructure, and collaborative spirit, making it an attractive destination for clinical trials and biotechnology innovation. Highlighting these strengths at global events positions both Alithia and Australia as key players in the global biotech landscape. Ultimately, participation in these events enables Alithia to contribute to the advancement of the industry while promoting our capabilities, nurturing strategic partnerships and driving innovation globally. We look forward to continuing this journey at the upcoming AusBiotech Conference and beyond. We hope to see you there! #lifesciences #biotechnology #conferences #events #innovation #collaboration #networking #businessdevelopment

Did you know that a 2024 report by MTPConnect shows that Australia is home to more than a thousand clinical trials each year? With its world-class medical research facilities, fast regulatory approvals, and a diverse population, it’s no wonder that Australia has become a preferred destination for global biotech and pharmaceutical companies. Whether you're in early-phase development or looking for large-scale studies, Australia provides the perfect environment to conduct this work and Alithia Life Sciences is expertly positioned to partner you on this journey. #clinicaltrials #medicalresearch #Australia #lifesciences #biotech

Funding and investment remain one of the biggest barriers to growth in the life sciences and biotechnology industries. Considering this, AusBiotech are aiming to implement new strategies and programs to help overcome these issues and allow the research ecosystem in Australia to flourish. To do this effectively, they are seeking insights from biotech and medtech leaders through the survey at the link below. If you are able to spare 10 minutes, your participation would be greatly appreciated. https://lnkd.in/gJVTA_su #biotech #medtech #funding #investment

On World Mental Health Day, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate one of the biggest research achievements in this area in recent times. The journey to FDA approval for Cobenfy has been a long one, which has involved tireless contributions from many people around the world, including significant breakthroughs from Prof Brian Dean at The Florey. Congratulations to all involved in the development of this novel treatment for schizophrenia - it really does prove that persistence pays off! #wmhd2024 #schizophrenia #mentalhealthawareness #medicalresearch

This October, Alithia Life Sciences is proud to support breast cancer awareness month. Recent statistics from the National Breast Cancer Foundation show that breast cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia, with 9 people losing their lives to the disease every day. Increasing research and clinical trials in this area remains our best chance to reduce the impact of this devastating disease. With Australia at the forefront of this endeavour, we are proud to be part of this ecosystem and helping in any way that we can to make a difference. #nbcf #breastcancerresearch #ZeroDeaths #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth
