Excuse me, but what would you say if I sent you a fully-trained biologist who doesn't have so much coding experience, but can easily learn?


Potentially, but not for this role. A startup isn't a place to learn, unfortunately; it's a place to execute on the skills you already know cold. However, do we have one opening for a PhD-level staff scientist that we could consider your friend for.


Fair enough. Unfortunately my friend is MSc-level rather than PhD-level at this time. Speaking of PhD's, do you know what biological fields look good to do a PhD in?

Thanks for the answer.
