    The $100M Journey from Discovery to Device | Nassir Mokarram
    Oct 15 2025
    What if treating brain cancer wasn't about destroying tumors, but redirecting them? In this captivating episode, Dr. Nassir Mokarram—Director of Venture Investments at the Emory Endowment and a Georgia Tech "40 Under 40" honoree—shares the remarkable story behind the "Tumor Monorail," a groundbreaking medical device designed to guide brain tumors away from vital tissue and into a controlled space. From the early research labs at Georgia Tech to real-world clinical trials, Nassir takes us through the decade-long journey of translating science fiction into surgical reality. Beyond biotech, this episode dives deep into the future of academia, AI, and leadership. Nassir unpacks why universities must rethink how they reward innovation, why intellectual humility is essential for progress ("strong opinions, loosely held"), and how integrity and self-awareness shape great leaders. Whether you're a scientist, entrepreneur, or simply curious about the intersection of technology and humanity, this conversation will leave you inspired to build what's next.
