Product Manager - Nashville Biosciences, LLC

About NashBio:

Smarter data enables smarter outcomes. Modern healthcare systems produce endless amounts of data, but finding the right data to enhance R&D can be a big challenge. At NashBio, our mission is to make complex healthcare data easy to use. Our approach focuses on our clients’ use cases - tailoring multimodal datasets to their unique specifications to achieve optimal return on clinical, operational and financial investment. To accomplish this, we leverage deidentified, phenotypically deep, disease enriched real-world ‘omics datasets, including one of the world’s largest collections of whole genome sequencing (WGS) linked to electronic health records. NashBio works with companies of all sizes across the life sciences, including biopharma, diagnostics, med tech, tech bio and leading venture firms. We are profitably revenue-generating and recently co-founded the Alliance for Genomic Discovery (AGD) with nine other leading life science companies active in genomics. NashBio is now actively planning its next strategic horizons to further establish itself as the indispensable real-world omics resource for life sciences R&D.
