#059 Meritocracy — Prof Sir John Burn - a podcast by Mustafa Sultan

Professor Sir John Burn is Professor of Clinical Genetics at Newcastle University, a Non-Executive Director of NHS England and Vice Chairman of QuantumDx.

His story is fascinating and slightly unusual — because he began life from humble beginnings in a small village in the North East of England.

We talk about meritocracy, how to be a showman and why business and clinical academia are really very similar.

I hope you enjoy.
