You might resonate with the culture at ECL if ...

• You are passionate about science, technology, and medicine
• You are impressively empathetic.
• You first understand the other until they agree you can express their view as well as they can themselves.
• You are intellectually fearless. Stretching yourself well out of your comfort zone across multiple disciplines is more the rule than the exception at Emerald.
• You are curious. When first-principles reasoning illuminates a path that diverges from the standard assumptions, you feel compelled to see where it leads.
