I am not assuming anyone here is doubting Dr. Pourhassan. However, it is very easy to anticipate that as others (big mutual funds/institutional investors) pile in, that there could be a clamoring for a CEO who “fits” the image and expectations associated with the role.
Regardless of his personal anecdotes in his presentations, he seems to be as, if not more, important than the science that brought us here.
There is a story with every scientific breakthrough.
We are lucky to have him as the narrator of that story.
