Rethinking the Paradigm in Medical Research and Discovery

My passion for science and medicine began in high school. I grew up near Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. I was a bookish kid, and not much has changed. My first work experience occurred at the age of 16 in a hereditary colorectal cancer laboratory at Stanford under a brilliant preceptor, Hanlee Ji, MD, a Hopkins medical school graduate who was studying Lynch syndrome and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer with Jim Ford. Here I learned genomics, the method of sequencing, and much more as we spent countless hours discussing different diseases.
