Rarely do we get to answer the question "What difference does what you do make?" in a way that is truly convincing.

Over the years I've been involved in more than a few Silicon Valley start-up ventures that made the outrageous claimed that their efforts would change the world. But they usually meant "world" in a very limited and transitory sense and the change never, as far as I am aware, promised to advance the cause of humanity.

Today I have the very good fortune to pursue scientific work that, if successful, is guaranteed to "change the world," no one will be untouched by it.

Of course, it is the hardest thing that I can think of to do and while I'm optimistic there are no guarantees ... but then that is what makes it fun.
