With 23andMe in the news this week, I thought it was a good time to share something I'd never published before. It's a short interview with Linda Avey, co-founder of 23andMe.
I spoke with Linda a couple years ago at the 2011 Open Science Summit in Mountain View, CA. I asked her a few questions about the advantages and challenges of open science - and how it relates to the businesses of 23andMe and her latest venture, Curious, Inc. She also comments on some of the other interesting open science projects presented at the summit.
