2020 Healthcare-Focused Sohn

New York | September 23, 2020


Over the course of 90 minutes, speakers delivered cutting edge and actionable healthcare investment insights, all in support of fighting COVID-19.

All proceeds of the September 23rd gathering support Rockefeller University’s Dr. Michel Nussenzweig, who is developing a novel therapy for COVID-19. Dr. Nussenzweig’s potent monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 entered clinical trials in fall 2020. He is using an approach he pioneered several years ago discovering and harnessing neutralizing antibodies against HIV. Gilead Sciences recently acquired the license to develop this new HIV antibody therapy. The Nussenzweig lab continues to spearhead the design of effective therapies against other known and emerging global infectious diseases.

Founded in 1901, Rockefeller is the world’s leading biomedical research university, drawing top scientists and graduate students from around the world in pursuit of one mission: to conduct science for the benefit of humanity.
