Raising Health

From Surgeon to Biotech CEO with Jonathan Lim


Listen Later

Jonathan Lim is the CEO of Erasca, but his career path took him on a fascinating journey from practicing as a surgeon to leading life science companies. In a recent conversation, Lim shared valuable insights about his transition to the biotech world, his leadership experiences, and the lessons he's learned while founding and guiding organizations through high-stakes decision making. 

Reflecting on a personal trip to the Galapagos Islands, Lim also drew parallels between Darwinian evolution and business. In today’s challenging biotech environment, entrepreneurs need to adapt or die, consistently evolving by reprioritizing, raising funds smartly, and staying agile to survive and thrive.
