Great episode of this podcast where our Chief Scientist Gene Yeo goes into a ton of detail talking about his mentoring philosophy. Like Nick mentioned below, exciting to hear Gene talk about building a "playground" for RNA therapeutics, especially since there are so many potential opportunities. Also, we here at Sanford Labs are totally on board with Gene's point that rather than working towards a large slice of a small pie, it's more fun and impactful to work collaboratively towards a small slice of a big pie.
I've interviewed a lot of scientists the last few years. Gene Yeo stands out. Every time we talk, I'm inspired to do more and be better. He's a legendary mentor and, in my experience, always down to discuss new ideas. We talked about his approach to building a "playground", where trainees come from diverse backgrounds and work together on big questions. Listen to our conversation below. It's worth your time!
