Today we have the pleasure of speaking with George Church, Ph.D., Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School. George is a pioneer in the field of genetics and personal genomics, and has co-founded nearly 50 companies and advised dozens more in the last four decades. In 2017, George was listed in the Time 100, Time Magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. Noor asks George about what makes biotech companies successful in their transition from the lab to the market, what excites him about whole genome sequencing of embryos, what the world would look like if embryo screening and IVF was the default way of having children, and other work he is excited to see come to life in the coming years.
