Sciences

Sciences is as broad a term as technology. So, for our purposes, we’ve divided our sciences practice areas into the following subspecialties:

• Life sciences: Our work in life sciences is primarily focused on biotechnology. This sector includes both drug discovery and platform technologies, and covers such fields as genomics, proteomics, and beyond.
• Health sciences: Our specialty here is medical devices, especially the integration of computers (software/hardware) and electro–mechanical devices, electro-optical devices, and 510K required Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 devices. Medical devices for our purposes are often further split into diagnostics, therapeutics, and research instrumentation.
• Healthcare IT: This includes data analytics across the payer and provider.
• Nanotechnology: This crossover area between technology and material science
  is growng in importance and funding.
• CleanTech: Our largest practice area in the last few years has been cleantech. Given its relative newness as an industry, clean tech has been referred to alternatively as renewable energy, sustainable energy, and greentech. We’re proud to have done search work in subsectors of cleantech including:
  • Solar
  • Wind
  • Green chemistry
  • Water purification technology
