"In five years, I aim to be collaborating on a team of the best of the best in my field, creating life-changing breakthroughs committed to the improved health of people and the planet.

Others dream of changing the lives of others by bettering their health. I dream of both. In five years, I aim to accomplish that and be working towards even grander progress."
