Hi, I'm Alex. I would like to start/join a therapeutics startup that explores the potential of iPSC-derived progeny in the treatment of haematological diseases and cancers. Primary areas of interest are hypoimmune allogeneic iPSCs, ex vivo gene editing, and scaling in vitro differentiation.
Rather than merely improving upon existing solutions, the startup I envision will leverage cutting-edge technology, either currently available or imminent, aiming to set new standards. I would like to disrupt, not increment!
I see myself researching in a small but highly trained team in an environment where strong ownership and swift execution is encouraged. We present and discuss data often, always focusing on what’s essential. We embrace a philosophy of “disagree and commit,” and are – if necessary – prepared to pivot our strategy, justifying our decisions transparently.
Our shared culture encourages amicable competition, camaraderie and mutual respect, underpinned by open communication and stoic principles. Contributions from all team members are valued, with regular feedback loops on both professional and personal growth. We proactively address any friction in a constructive manner.
We are driven by the transformative potential of our work, valuing impact and learning over work-life balance and compensation.
If this vision resonates with you, let’s connect!
