Biotech has moved beyond fixing disease states. We are here to augment people to live longer, reach higher, and achieve their goals.
We love to read — everything from books to research papers. There is long lineage of very intelligent humans behind each one of us and fortunately many of them passed on their knowledge through writing.
If something is broken, fix it. If there is an opportunity, take it. Stagnation is worse than failure.
We build MVPs first, and rapidly iterate to add features. A good product today is better than a perfect one tomorrow.
There are endless opportunities to come in second place. We play to win.
If you are hitting your goals they are not challenging enough. We are constantly moving the bar forward.
Monopolies defend themselves by creating a facade of complexity. Often the simplest questions are the most valuable.
