Thanks very much for visiting Life Science Deal Flow.
Life Science Deal Flow is the personal blog of me, Adam Rubenstein. I am a bit of a life science as well as web and technology junkie. When I launched this site back in 2005 it was obvious that most people, sans perhaps my mother, would not be interested in reading about my personal-life ramblings, but alas, as I pursued my passion for all aspects of development-stage bioscience and subsequently worked to track and catalog certain related content it struck me that perhaps others might find said aggregated data equally useful, thus “Colorado Life Science Deal Flow” emerged which soon thereafter evolved into present day Life Science Deal Flow and OnBioVC.com, a competitive intelligence and bioscience venture capital database.
I was taught biology by many however, a particular individual who I am eternally grateful to, who nurtured and challenged me, was Michael Klymkowsky, Ph.D. at the University Colorado, Boulder Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology where cell signaling and gene regulation was the order of the day.
There are many others who have had an amazingly positive impact on my development (and a few who have even picked me up, dusted me off and sent me back again on my way), too many to name here, but if you take a look at the acknowledgements page HERE you’ll find who these special folks are.
More recently I worked as an Associate for High Country Venture and Tango, a private equity group; as Senior Analyst on the finance team at ARCA biopharma (NASDAQ: ABIO); Co-Founder of the venture development and advisory group, Fitzsimons BioBusiness Partners; Founder of the online competitive intelligence resource OnBioVC; and, as a Consultant providing corporate strategy, business development and finance work for numerous development and commercial-stage entities (a few clients include: MycoLogics, PhosphoSolutions, BaroFold and SomaLogic). Earlier pursuits included stints with the investment banks Merrill Lynch (now Bank of America (NYSE: BAC)) and B.C. Zeigler & Co. (NASDAQ: ZGCO).
