Googlebet Getting More Into Life Science, Biomedicine

Looks like Google/Alphabet’s getting deeper into life science and biomedicine. “[Jessica] Mega’s decision to move in March to Google was one in a string of announcements by top-flight scientists and physicians who are enlisting in the mission, and pioneering a new type of career path in the process. Although academic researchers from fields such as computer science and engineering have led innovative Google projects (such as the Internet-connected eyewear known as Glass), Google and other technology companies are increasingly recruiting life scientists as Silicon Valley broadens its reach into health care.”
