In this episode of Careers in Discovery, Emma is joined by Juozas Gordevicius, founder of VUGENE, a bioinformatics company making complex multi-omics data analysis accessible to scientists across academia and industry.
Juozas joined us to talk about his unconventional journey from computer science into the world of life sciences, how a chance meeting with an epigenetics professor changed his career path, and the story behind founding VUGENE.
We also discussed the transformative impact of AI and machine learning on omics data, the realities of building a company from scratch, and why hiring that first team member is one of the scariest - but most rewarding - moments for any founder.
This is a conversation about creativity, resilience, and building bridges between technology and biology.
