Providing an environment for employees to reach their full potential is a foundational principle at #AskBio. We work to do this in many ways, including our efforts to make workplace safety a top priority. Earlier this week, at our Philadelphia office, our Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) team conducted an evacuation drill, which included a health walk to our assembly area. This important drill ensured that our colleagues understood the proper procedures in the event of an evacuation and provided our EH&S team with an opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of the procedures we have in place.

The #AskBio patient advocacy team had a full and exciting first half of 2024. Our colleagues engaged with 25 patient advocacy groups active in Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, and Pompe disease, as well as more than 15 global organizations that are raising awareness of congestive heart failure and the need for improved cardiovascular health and access to treatments. Our company also sponsored or participated in nearly 20 face-to-face patient events highlighting our #genetherapy educational activities and our latest clinical trial information. We value our ongoing relationships with our advocacy partners, as they are some of our greatest collaborators and are key to helping prioritize clinical candidates, establish research protocols, and advance technological innovation. On #NationalPatientAdvocacyDay, we’d like to thank all the organizations and individuals who support our company and others in working to advance gene therapy. #Parkinsons #MSA #LGMD #Pompe #CHF Kara Witcoff, Meg Heim, Steven Elmes, Ina Shah, PharmD, BCMAS, Parkinson Foundation Western Pennsylvania, Neuro Challenge Foundation For Parkinson's, The Michael J.

Our African American ERG recently wrapped up the 3rd annual #AskBio Summer Immersion Program. This year we partnered with North Carolina Central University and Durham Technical Community College to introduce more than 50 junior and senior high school students from across North Carolina to a laboratory environment and careers in the biopharmaceutical industry. THANK YOU to all the volunteers from scientists to executives who have helped inspire more than 200 high school students during the past three years. Together, we can reimagine what is possible. #leadership #genetherapy

Our #AskBio team was privileged to work with 12 outstanding young individuals who helped make our summer intern program a success. During the next few weeks, we will share perspectives from each intern on one of the following questions: 1. What’s something new you learned during your internship? 2. How would you describe this experience to other students? 3. What was the most rewarding aspect of interning with AskBio? Up first are Claire O'Connor and Sofia Mejia to tell us about something new they learned this summer. #biotech #leadership #summerinterns #genetherapy

The UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and Research Ethics Committee (REC) have approved the design of #AskBio’s Phase 2 GenePHIT trial of AB-1002, a #genetherapy being developed for the treatment of congestive heart failure (CHF). With this MHRA and REC endorsement, patient recruitment in the UK can begin in the coming months. We announced earlier this year that GenePHIT was initiated in the U.S. and that the first patient was randomized. The trial is currently recruiting in the U.S. Additional information is available on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT#05598333). Congratulations to our #CHF team on the achievement of this important milestone for patients.

The #AskBio Women's Leadership Initiative Employee Resource Group (WLI ERG) continues to unite our amazing female colleagues around topics that offer insight and inspiration. The ERG recently announced its first summer book club and is diving into "The Exceptions" by Kate Zernike. The book was selected as a compelling exploration of the history of the challenges women face in scientific research and development fields. Through the stories of remarkable women who defied expectations, the book delves into navigating professional obstacles, while highlighting how far the field has come in mere decades. At AskBio, we embrace diverse points of view and cultivate collaboration through shared learning experiences. What’s on your summer reading list? #WomenInBusiness #Leadership #BookClub #CultivateCollaboration
