At the crossroads of research and business | HiLIFE series Ep2 w/ Andrea Ganna & Johan Lundin

The Science Basement Podcast

Being absorbed in their work, how often do researchers think about transitioning their ideas beyond the scope of the main question? With ubiquitous university campaigns, it’s hard to overlook the business form of such enterprises. In this episode, our guests Johan Lundin and Andrea Ganna share their own experience with turning research into business, where and how to start, how to take risks smartly, and why even embark on such adventure. Andrea Ganna is an associate professor at HiLife and a research associate at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School. And Johan Lundin is a Research Director at FIMM (Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland, which is part of HiLife) and a Professor at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden. Your hosts for this episode are Anastasiia Marmyleva & Marie-Noëlle Paludetto. Editing by Steven Simmonds. Episode cover by Anastasiia Marmyleva. TSB podcast logo by Tomás Garnier Artiñano.
