Intro & Rapid Fire Questions 

Bridging the gap between science and business: How do you decide what projects to pursue? What are you looking for in a project? What is it like to enter the world of business as a scientist?

Not everyone enjoys the high risk of binary fields: How do you handle projects that did not work out? Was there a key moment, when you knew that it was not going to work? 

Scientist, entrepreneur, investor, professor, lobbyist: Which one role is most prominent these days? What does your day-to-day look like in that role? 

A special VC fund: CR Ventures - What do you invest in? What is unique about your fund?

Meet Nuno! Founder and one of four partners at CR Ventures (Clinical Research Ventures). This week's guest is a scientist, but also an entrepreneur, investor, professor and even lobbyist at times. He has been building all kinds of science-based ventures, turning scientific knowledge into economic or social value. He truly enjoys the uncertainty of doing things that have not been done before, which is something I find fascinating!
