In this episode, Ivan and Liz talk with Luca Comai, a Professor of Plant Biology at the Genome Center at University of California, Davis. We discuss a paper he published as part of his transition from industry to academia that he feels illustrates a mistake he made in choosing a research direction. We have a fascinating conversation about the power and the peril of striking out in new research directions and Luca gives his advice on grant-writing.
