We interview Nils Homer, the co-founder of Fulcrum Genomics, a thriving bioinformatics consulting business.
Topics:
* Why Nils decided to start a consulting business in the bioinformatics space.
* Embracing open-source.
* Finding customers is the easy part.
* Scoping and pricing in science when figuring out what work is possible or necessary is a huge part of the work itself.
* Why Nils believes "working hard" and "lifestyle business" are not conflicting concepts.
* Exploring the possibilities of productizing services in the custom-driven world of bioinformatics.
* Nils' thoughts on selling software to scientists.
