Her story traces the unconventional invention of a breakthrough drug treatment from its development from laboratory researchin the laboratory to its application as a medical treatment for vision loss. Told from a female perspective, In Sight is a unique and personal story covering Levy's early years as a refugee, her university training in the UK, and her appointment as professor at the University of British Columbia. Years spent as an academic led gave the author to unexpected exposure to the biotechnology industry and a chance meeting with colleagues that led to the formation of a lucrative biotechnology company, known today as QLT Inc. The bulk of the book covers the years spent building the company, and Levy's surprising transition from chief scientific officer to CEO. In Sight is an honest description of the trials of drug development, the tensions inherent in the commercialization of health innovations, and the truly remarkable hurdles faced by women in the scientific community."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aMicrobiologists$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aCollege teachers$zCanada$vBiography 607 $aCanada$2fast 607 $aCanada 608 $aAutobiographies.$2fast 608 $aBiographies.$2fast 608 $aAutobiographies.$2lcgft 610 $aIPO. 610 $aQLT. 610 $aSTEM. 610 $aVisudyne. 610 $abiography. 610 $abiotechnology. 610 $acareers. 610 $acommercialisation of science. 610 $amacular degeneration. 610 $amemoir. 610 $aphotodynamic. 610 $atherapy. 610 $awomen in business. 610 $awomen in science. 615 0$aMicrobiologists 615 0$aCollege teachers 676 $a579.092 686 $acci1icc$2lacc 700 $aLevy$b Julia G.$f1934-$01540851 702 $aShoichet$b Molly 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821774103321 996 $aIn sight$93986784 997 $aUNINA
