Currently 22 premed and would be interested in creating a start up in this subject or life sciences, I've read a few things about creating one and how difficult it is, does anyone have any experience ?

a graduate degree is not sufficient ?
like for example if you want to produce some enzyymes or grow some genetically modified bacteria or yeast ?

First you get the idea. Then you get the investor. Then you hire an MD or a PhD for few grands per month and 3 to 5 percent of your company if he agrees to work for you 3 to 5 years. Naturally, you don't have to be an MD or a PhD yourself.

Interesting. But what prevents the PhD and the investor to kick you out and continue without you ?
Giving that you do not bring science nor money and therefore is expandable

Good luck to them chasing my dream without my vision. There may be other motivational factors (like me slaughtering their families if they try to fuck me over. I'm just kidding. That is what they did to Steve Jobs, look how far down they went until they rehired him. They recently ousted Aubrey de Grey and though he holds his degree, they're now fucked not because of that)

Is such humour why I don't have investors?
Satan reigns with fear. God reigns with love. Both are abstractions yet archetypes, the concept we measrue the reality with. Satan is translated as enemy, so that un- of unemy should go away, to have amour, to be ami. (of me?) And then I heard this kind message, and have faith and not become cynical, because cynicism is the first obstacle on the way to success (to cease to suck?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWt1lCJaOkw

I'm going for the MD, my plan would be to get a masters in biotech or similar.

I can't right now, one of the reasons why I'm starting it kek.

God can inspire fear and love, maybe not necessarily the way mean it humans.

So you want to do a biotech company in something medical ? Like what ? I guess maybe not a treatment for some disease because that'll take years to have anything aproved by the FDA and it'll take money

I feel you bro. When you have a 30,000 feet view of your subject and have a plan to do something major I guess you're the one person that can't be replaced.

But then again nothing is that high above that there isn't someone else that couldn't arrive at the same conclusions or learn all of it.

But then again, if you're fast enough, agressive enough and with a fucking high level broad vision, who can stop you ?

Other people have to be on board with your vision, and they have to be confident that you have one, if they aren't then they can oust you and give pretty valid reasons as to why,
can you prove your vision will work ?
They can certainly prove their credentials and ability to take over a company in the short term.

it's a good idea to keep motivated people on your team, if someone is willing to bring everything together in the first place he's a pretty valuable asset

you're all talk

there's not only one or two processes that makes us age but several completely different at different level, not even couting intoxication/pollution

I don't see how it could be done without actually replacing entire tissues. And that would require developpemental knowledge we simply don't have.
And every pharmaceutical that remotely triggers cell proliferation get instantly flagged and put aside for fear to trigger cancer, we don't even try

that make me think that if you also don't have a cure for cancer, you don't have either a cure for aging

frankly I believe we will make things that look like dinosaurs before we'll ""cure aging"". the later probably utterly impossible, the former really possible I think

Physicist working in quantum computing at the moment. Getting more and more interested in genomics tho and would like to transition at some point.

That’s a funny article but I pretty much agree with this post >>13831891

For one thing, look how far AI has come in that short time, I. Terms of handling big datasets.

i'm not really excited about bioinformatics as almost only sequencing either

but I see it becoming more interesting as we're begining to try to model cells. (whole cell modeling)

and also, potentially engineering enzymes with the help of biomolecules model

Did you actually read your article? Even back in 2012 I don't believe anyone would take this 1% serious. If I had the time I would point out everything wrong with this but considering that this guy spews bullshit in every second sentence it would take too much time. Simply googling the important terms and reading the wikipedia articles should give you an idea on how many levels this guy is bullshitting. It's not even funny.
