New York, N.Y., January 9, 2024 – In celebration of National Biotechnology Month, PRISM MarketView acknowledges the significant advancements in biotechnology since its establishment by President Clinton in 2000. This month-long celebration underscores the remarkable achievements and untapped potential of biotechnology – a field that harnesses living organisms and systems to develop pioneering products, intersecting with various scientific disciplines.
Biotechnology, with its deep roots in genetics, genomics, and gene therapies, is reshaping our understanding of health and disease. The exploration of inherited genes, genetic mutations and innovative gene-based treatments are at the forefront of this scientific revolution, offering groundbreaking and life-altering applications.
Aligning with this spirit of innovation and progress, PRISM MarketView is spotlighting the PRISM Emerging Biotech Index. This carefully curated index tracks the performance of small-cap companies at the forefront of biotechnology.
