The Office of Research proudly presents UTHSC LEADS (Launching Entrepreneurial Activities and Discovery in Science). The UTHSC LEADS seminar series brings successful and engaging entrepreneurial scientists, involved in biotech, life sciences, Pharma and device sectors, to UTHSC so they can relay their “entrepreneurial stories.” Our fourth speaker is Tim Brahm.

Tim Brahm is the CEO of Ontologix, an AI software company focused on Life Sciences, and was recently named CEO of Sui Generis Health, the first Value Based Group Purchasing Organization in the U.S. As a leading entrepreneur, he founded and successfully ran BioD for over six years before the company was acquired; and is now owned by Integra Life Sciences. Mr. Brahm has over 21 years of experience in tissue banking and Biologic Product research and development. He was a founder and President of the Mid-South Tissue Bank of Memphis. Tim was also a founding employee of Regeneration Technologies (RTIX) in Allachua, Fl which was spun out of the University of Florida. Mr. Brahm founded United Tissue Services (dba Spinal Graft Technologies), a tissue-based company that sold its assets to Medtronic Sofamor Danek. Moreover, Tim also founded and managed United Donor Services, Southeastern Donor Services, and Louisiana Donor Services.

Mr. Brahm will give an engaging talk on “An Entrepreneur’s Journey in Developing and Commercializing Novel Biologic Products: The BioD Story.” All events are free to attendees and lunch will be served to the first 50 attendees! Please see the Office of Research’s website  for more information.
