Mark T. Esser, PhD, the inaugural chief scientific officer and head of the upcoming Paul and Diane Manning Institute of Biotechnology, talked recently with NPR’s Virginia Public Media about the institute.

According to Dr. Esser, “The Manning Institute for Biotechnology is really going to be a catalyst for innovation here in Virginia and the country, and hopefully the world. It really has two key missions: to train and develop the next generation of scientists and physicians and medical leaders, and to transform some of the exciting scientific discoveries into new medicines and treatments.”
