Founding a Biotechnology Company: Yashar Niknafs, Co-founder and CEO, LynxDx

Join us on May 12 at 4 p.m. EST via Zoom as part of the Case Western Reserve University Entrepreneurship Series for a Roundtable Discussion with Yashar Niknafs, co-founder and CEO at LynxDx. He will discuss co-founding LynxDx, which was created to commercialize a novel prostate cancer diagnostic test and during the pandemic has refocused its efforts on COVID-19 PCR testing. LynxDx is now Michigan's largest COVID-19 test provider.

Niknafs is an alum of CWRU, where he graduated from in 2011 with a BS in Biochemistry. While he was a PhD student at the University of Michigan he helped develop a promising prostate cancer test which led to the founding of LynxDx.

We will also be broadcasting this roundtable and future roundtables to LinkedIn Live on CWRU Veale Institute for Entrepreneurship's LinkedIn page on May 12 at 4 p.m.
