Empathy is a critical skill for patient advocates. It allows us to listen to patients, believe them, and see their experiences from their perspective. This means putting aside our assumptions and biases and opening ourselves up to the patient's reality. It means listening without judgment and believing them when they tell us what they're going through. Empathy is essential for building trust and rapport with patients. It allows us to understand their needs and advocate for them more effectively. At the Patient Advocacy Summit next Thursday (November 9), we will explore becoming better patient advocates and building stronger relationships with patients, industry partners, and policymakers.

MassBioDrive harnesses the power of MassBio’s global life sciences network to help new founders launch their biotech startups. We announced our #MassBioDrive Fall 2024 Cohort last month, and are highlighting our five emerging biotech companies chosen to participate. Today, please meet Lybra Bio! Q: Tell us about your company and what you’re developing. What are you most excited about? A: At Lybra Bio, we are transforming the treatment landscape of those suffering from Autoimmune Skin Diseases. We use regulatory T cell (Treg) biology to support the restoration of immune balance within the skin. By tapping into the body’s inherent capacity to promote immune equilibrium, our technology is crafted to not only relieve symptoms but also target the root cause of immune dysregulation. This approach is made possible with our innovative microneedle technology, offering unprecedented precision in treatment. Q: What advice do you have for other biotech companies just getting started? A: My biggest advice is to have someone on your team who’s all-in and truly believes in your vision (your internal champion). They’ll help push your company forward. Then, surround yourself with experts who bring fresh perspectives and can guide you through the tricky parts of biotech. Q: What has been most impactful or surprising to you since joining the MassBioDrive program? A: The most impactful thing for me has been the incredible commitment and support from the mentors—they go above and beyond what you’d expect from a typical accelerator. It’s really helped me make tangible progress for my company, and that’s been both surprising and invaluable.
