In this episode of FemInnovation, host Bethany Corbin sits down with Somer Baburek to discuss women's health in the biotech industry and the future of endometriosis diagnosis. Somer is the CEO of Hera Biotech, an early-stage women's health company focused on commercializing a minimally invasive diagnostic for endometriosis. Prior to founding Hera, Somer spent 7 years with the largest life science venture capital fund in San Antonio and served as the Director of Clinical Operations for two of the fund's sister companies. Bethany and Somer discuss why the biotech industry continues to ignore women's health, how to build diagnostic tools without a scientific or medical background, how life sciences VC funds analyze biotech companies, and the ways in which Hera Biotech is revolutionizing the endometriosis field. You won't want to miss this exciting discussion.
