Previous Episode: #058 BMJ Editor-in-Chief — Dr Fiona Godlee
Professor Sir John Burn is Professor of Clinical Genetics at Newcastle University, a Non-Executive Director of NHS England and Vice Chairman of QuantumDx.
His story is fascinating and slightly unusual — because he began life from humble beginnings in a small village in the North East of England.
We talk about meritocracy, how to be a showman and why business and clinical academia are really very similar.
I hope you enjoy.
