Coincidence? Hmmaybe.

Our earlier post on the Cytyc/Hologic merger failed to mention this potentially salient point. IN VIVO Blog eyed Ed Hutchinson and Thomas Umbel, the business development heads for the Cytyc and Hologic, respectively, sitting next to one another on a panel at our recent In3 West Conference.



Birthplace of a Merger??



Now, we're not suggesting this is where the merger was hatched. Certainly not. (Okay, maybe we are a little bit with tongue nearly poking through cheek.) But we just wanted to point out that if you're hoping to network with some major deal makers, you might want to check out an upcoming In3 meeting.

And, as a matter of fact, the In3 Medical Device Summit is in a few weeks in San Francisco. We hope to see you there. Please take a moment to say hello, particularly if you've got some merger talks to reveal.

IN VIVO Blog knows how to keep a secret.
