Understanding Cancer Genomics, and More, with Jimmy Lin
Our guest for today's episode is Jimmy Lin, president and founder of the Rare Genomics Institute. He's also a senior TED fellow, which is how I got to know him. He's a big-hearted genius who is up to all kinds of exciting, world-changing things. The fact that he sat down long enough to talk with us is a real honor and I think you'll see why I'm such a fan of his. I hope you enjoy this conversation!
