President Emerita Susan Hockfield, Prof. Sangeeta Bhatia and Prof. Nancy Hopkins have convened a working group to increase the number of women in biotech. “We’ve been talking about the 40 companies that haven’t happened because women haven’t had the opportunity,” said Maria Zuber, MIT’s vice president of research. “If a number of those 40 companies had come to pass, people would have treatments today that they don’t have.”
