Science, undaunted

2025 brought sweeping change to the health care industry. Massive federal funding cuts, major government policy shifts, and growing public skepticism toward science and medicine have tested researchers, entrepreneurs, and executives in unprecedented ways. But science, like life, often finds a way. And amazing breakthroughs are emerging from academia and industry alike.

Come to Breakthrough East for a tour of important research, discoveries, and advancements in health and medicine and insights into how key figures in health care, the biotech and pharmaceuticals industries, and academic labs are trying to overcome new challenges and keep progress moving. This is the view from the front lines of medical research.
