If I asked you, “Where in the United States is biotechnology innovation occurring at a record pace, what states or cities come to mind? You probably thought of Boston, San Francisco, or even New York immediately.
These are not bad guesses, but what if I told you that the Washington, D.C./Maryland/Virginia (DMV) region is one of the country’s best places to engage in the biotechnology sector?

Working with rats, neuroscientists at Johns Hopkins University have pinpointed a mechanism in the brain responsible for a common type of age-related memory loss. The work, published in Current Biology, sheds light on the workings of aging brains and may deepen our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and similar disorders in humans.

Life sciences in New York City is poised for growth, but industry leaders said that will only be assured if developers build enough spaces for startups of all sizes. Unless the city can accommodate life sciences companies in their earlier years, when they need less space, experts warn NYC could lose talent to rival life sciences hubs.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is a critical pillar of the U.S. public health system and a beacon of guidance for healthcare best practices across the globe. This has never been more evident than during the COVID-19 crisis.
A lesser-known NIH facet is its long and productive history of technology transfer success.
Linshom is First to Deliver an Operating-Room-Quality Respiratory Profile to Patient Bedside for Continuous, Predictive Respiratory Monitoring (CPRM)
Baltimore, Md. (April 27, 2022) – Linshom (“to breathe”), a Maryland-based startup developing a respiratory monitoring system, closed a $1.5 million Series A funding round with investment from the Maryland Momentum Fund and current investors.
The Linshom Respiratory Sensor and Monitor is the first predictive, continuous respiratory monitoring system able to practically reach the patients’ bedside. Severe respiratory events can begin to cause brain damage only three minutes after breathing ceases. While critical care patients are continuously monitored for respiratory function, patients on general care floors are not monitored as closely, but are still at risk for serious respiratory complications. The Linshom Respiratory System bridges that gap, helping clinicians respond more quickly to severe respiratory-related events.
