Andrew Hessel

Genetic futurist and founder of the Genome Project, Andrew Hessel breaks down the landscape of our genomic future as we discuss all things emerging technology as part of our emerging tech series with our project on for Personalized Medicine by Design.

Sitting at the intersection of biotechnology, business, and vision, Hessel helps people better understand and use living systems to meet the needs of society.

This September 13-14, 500 innovation junkies will convene in Providence, Rhode Island to listen to 32 storytellers share their passionate stories about transformation at the annual Business Innovation Factory (BIF) Collaborative Innovation Summit. BIF’s Patient Experience Lab is most excited to listen and learn from these 5 speakers from the healthcare industry:

Saul Kaplan and Andrew Hessel discuss what it's like to unleash the adjacent possible as it relates to cellular biology, entering into a whole new area of design and manufacturing as an entirely new paradigm in creating the things that humanity needs to grow and thrive.

“The thing that has fascinated me for most of my life is that we’re just starting to understand and manipulate living things,” says Andrew Hessel.

From living cells to cell phones, Genomic Futurist Andrew Hessel draws our attention to life in all forms. In a world where genetic engineering can be performed from a laptop, Hessel’s work is inspiring a new generation of scientist.
