She is honored to work with some of the brightest minds in life science, and to communicate how emerging biotechnologies developed by Leaps ventures could disrupt core industry paradigms. The ‘bio revolution’ we are part of could change the world for the better and can also raise important ethical issues. Karyn is passionate about driving conversations that empower people to objectively evaluate risks, benefits, and needed guardrails as the bio-revolution becomes reality.
