Upcoming Events

BioBreakfast is a weekly gathering of individuals in the Pittsburgh life sciences sector from 8-10 AM every Tuesday.

The therapeutics landscape is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Advances in AI-enabled drug discovery, organ-on-chip and other non-animal models, cell and gene therapies, precision medicine, and novel clinical trial approaches are changing how therapies are discovered and developed. At Women In Bio Pittsburgh’s P.O.W.E.R. event, leaders from across the life sciences ecosystem will explore these changes and, importantly, what they mean for Pittsburgh and how Pittsburgh can leverage its assets to translate its research into therapies, companies, investment, and ultimately patient impact.

​LifeX Startup Summit 2026: Building with the Customer in Mind is designed for founders who want to move beyond theory and into real commercialization. Most startup events focus on fundraising. This one is about something far more decisive: getting customers to say yes. ​This is not a passive conference. It’s an interactive working session where founders will refine how they sell, pressure-test their assumptions, and leave with sharper messaging and clearer next steps because you will work alongside the people who actually buy and adopt innovation.

BioHack is a weekend-long hackathon bringing together graduate students, postdocs, clinicians, engineers, and young entrepreneurs to solve real problems in BioTech and MedTech.
