Note from the editor

Yuki, a Japanese geisha from Tokyo, is getting to meet with Nono, a French engineer, talented at raising funds that are aimed at fuelling the efforts of cutting-edge science in medicine, ageing, sustainable energy and more. Nono is interested in A.I. and deep learning. Science in his view amounts to a video game, just like anything else. As she admires her brother, a scientist aimed at disrupting cancer treatment, Yuki has started broadcasting videos about science and society on her YouTube channel: A Geisha Lost Between Two Worlds. She accidentally ends up raising funds for her brother’s lab, Takafumi Nagato, an oncologist who is leading the lab of Bioinformatics for personalised CAR-T-therapies in a Tokyo clinic. Ba, a Chinese zillionaire, and the founder of TenBa, is Taka’s patient. French biologist Mougin gets to pitch Ba, about his startup in San Francisco, Gene-i-us: your DNA & medical data on your smartphone. Browse it on iTunes, own it & monetize it. As it turns out, in life sciences, oppositions between Eastern BATX and Western GAFAM are more the exception, whereas complementarity — Yin Yang — is the rule. Startups are trying to create a blockchain-based genomic ecosystem.
