23andMe is pleased to bring public funding to bear on data and research driven by the public - our more than 180,000 customers.
23andMe set out to try and change healthcare - this is not an easy business. This is not a coffee shop in Austin.
Being able to do research in a real-time way is the way research needs to be done in the future.
Big challenges are an accumulation of small challenges.
Fashion was never my forte.
I carry my iPad and laptop with me everywhere.
I do believe at some point in time everyone will be genotyped at birth.
I don't necessarily want my physician making all my decisions.
I first heard about 'genes' when I was six years old. At dinner one night, I heard my mom tell my sister, 'It's in your genes.'
I guess I'm just fiercely independent.
I had a very unusual childhood in that I grew up on the Stanford campus and I never moved.
I have always been interested in health care and doing something that is dramatic.
I like company lunches because I think going out wastes valuable time; plus, a lot of good ideas come up over lunch.
