“Self-belief is a person’s strongest asset. You come to a time in your life where you have to nail your colors to the mast. Looking over the remarkable discoveries made in the last 20 years from CRISPR-Cas9 to organ-on-a-chip and meeting the people behind some of them I am struck by how they never gave up believing and how they took dreams and theory and made them into something accessible and practical. I like pragmatism and momentum – if you stop or spend too much time looking backwards then the world has moved on.”
