Former molecular biologist Jean Liu tells GC about the challenges and rewards of working for a biotech company at the forefront of innovation in cancer treatment.
GC: Could you tell me about your background and how you came to be working in-house for Seattle Genetics?
Jean Liu (JL): I started out as a scientist, not a lawyer. I went to grad school to study molecular biology, but when I started my PhD programme, I realised that I didn’t have the temperament to focus on very specific, minute details – I preferred to have a broader vision.
