Anne Wojcicki is the the co-founder and chief executive officer of the personal genomics company 23andMe. Was this a timely episode? Yes. As it happens, I'm personally and professionally involved in this topic of DNA tech. And it's not a subject that comes without controversy, critics and skepticism. I get it. It's complicated. While only some of the present positive and negative effects of any ripples (ala Golden State Killer captured by DNA tech) emerge, the jury is still out on what the future holds. My prediction is that it's going to be rough seas before it's smooth sailing. That said, I'm on board. I'm all in because, well, it's personal. I share some of my story here with Anne, I hope you enjoy!
