His team explored how to develop a licensing and launch strategy for a novel gene therapy while concurrently evaluating the profitability of that specific technology in the Multiple Sclerosis therapeutic market. They also included drug pricing, addressing the ethics of gene editing, and how to implement a unique licensing strategy that tied well to their launch strategy for the benefit of the most patients.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-36014\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Kunal-Dani-254x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"254\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Kunal-Dani-254x300.jpg 254w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Kunal-Dani-375x445.jpg 375w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Kunal-Dani.jpg 377w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 254px) 100vw, 254px\" \/>The other team members were MBA students from the Carey Business school, two of whom are also MPH students at the Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Given the short timeline and the rigor of the case, it effectively sharpens skills required outside of a lab setting that would be instrumental in areas like life science consulting and management at biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.&#8221; (Kunal is a member of David Gracias&#8217; lab, MSE &#8217;20)<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_36020\" style=\"width: 161px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36020\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36020\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-151x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"151\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-151x300.jpg 151w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-516x1024.jpg 516w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-768x1523.jpg 768w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-775x1536.jpg 775w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1-1033x2048.jpg 1033w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/YHCC-Team-Pic-Kunal-Dani-1.jpg 2033w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 151px) 100vw, 151px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-36020\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kunal Dani (ChemBE MSE &#8217;20), Vadi Esmailizadeh (MBA\/MPH &#8217;20), Gilda Aussi (MBA &#8217;20), Katherine Connolly (MBA\/MPH &#8217;20), Ernest Nyarko (MBA &#8217;20)<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-27583","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>ChemBE graduate students and MBA candidate student team present their healthcare business case at Yale - Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/chembe\/news\/healthcare-case-competition-kunal-dani\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"ChemBE graduate students and MBA candidate student team present their healthcare business case at Yale - Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A team of JHU graduate students, including a ChemBE PhD student, Kunal Dani, competed in a business case study competition at Yale last weekend (2\/21-2).
