Biodefense: Understanding the Intersection of Life Sciences and National Security

The upcoming panel discussion will focus on the rapidly growing field of biodefense and its role within Indiana’s thriving life sciences and defense ecosystems. Industry and defense experts will share insights on how these sectors are working together to develop innovative solutions that address national security and public health challenges. The conversation will highlight the breadth of federal and defense-related contract opportunities available to Indiana companies, from advanced research and development to manufacturing and supply chain partnerships.
