Follow Friday: Blog style

November 6th, 2009

As many of you may know, we are very active on our twitter account, and we are starting a small segment where we highlight a few we are following and why:

Today it is just a few San Diego Biotech twitter accounts:

@SDBN is a networking twitter account for just the twitter community. If you follow them you will find a mix of local events you can attend, happenings in the San Diego Community, and witty remarks about life in general. Thet also have a blog http://sdbn.org/

@MrGunn William Gunn is a San Diego local who is passionate about science, politics and anything related to both. He writes a Science blog that is fascinating and well researched (if we do say so ourselves). What I usually find on his twitter is articles he finds interesting as well as witty observations and good conversation in general.

@Comprendia is the twitter account of a Bioscience consulting group . They also write another science blog that gives useful tips for everyone who wants advice about business in the biotech community. They often write about how to effectively use social media for scientists, and have witty banter as well.

@biophase is a biotech staffing site in San Diego that helps people find jobs in the San Diego community. They are also very active in the local community and are a great resource for anyone looking for a job.

@idtdna is not just in San Diego but they have a branch there so we included them. Even though they are a phenomenal oligo synthesis service their twitter account isn’t just about business. Its about what is going on around them, what conferences they attend, and what is interesting in the biotech field.

There are many many more for us to recommend, even in the San Diego Community. Which we will continue later.

San Diego Networking in Biotech

August 11th, 2009

San Diego has some of the best networking opportunities in the area to be able to get out there and meet people in bioscience. Most include food, fun, and great information about the community around us. Here are some of the best that have events planned every one to two months:

SDBN or San Diego Biotech Network is a wonderful blog resource about the community as well as event planners that have events each month. Sometimes they specialize in how to use social media to better collaborate, to teaching you about local companies. Check their blog out regularly to find out where and when they are putting things on.

Women of Bioscience is a social gathering every other month. Basically it is just girls getting together at El Torito in La Jolla and chatting about what is going on in the bioscience arena. They also include gift raffles and is completely free. (Everything is put on by local sponsors.)

SDBDG , or San Diego Biotech Discussion Group is another bi-monthly group that spotlights a sponsored company as well as introduces a lot of small local biotechs. It’s held at the last wednesday of every other month at 530 pm. Food is provided and its also free.

Hope you get the chance to get out there and meet some new scientists in San Diego!
