Meet Nathan Chen’s sister Janice Chen, who is building a $100 billion company

No one knows it better than the Olympic champion Nathan Chen, what it’s like to be a part of a high performance family. While Nathan has achieved much in his brief career, his sister Janice Chen is not behind as well. She is doing some remarkable work in the field of biotechnology and in 2018 she gave a TEDx talk about the same.

Currently, the Olympic gold medalist is preparing for the World Figure Skating Championship taking place in a week’s time in France. It has been an amazing start of the year so far for Nathan and there’s still more to come from it.

While the little brother is an Olympic champion, Janice has also gained some spotlight by co-founding a billion dollar biotech company called Mammoth Biosciences. She has made substantial progress in her work on gene editing technology that might account for ground-breaking discoveries, such as identifying bacterial and viral infections to early cancer detection.

Apart from Janice Chen, Trevor Martin, Lucas Harrington and CRISPR gene editing pioneer, the Nobel Prize winner Jennifer Doudna are the other co-founders of the company.

Since the Covid-19 pandemic hit the world in 2020, the company has gained a lot of momentum in terms of finance and reach. However, Janice said, “Our intention is not to build and sell it but to become a $100 billion company in next-generation CRISPR technology.”

Nathan Chen is ready for World Figure Skating Championship

After the tremendous success of Beijing Winter Olympics, Nathan Chen is all set to win his fourth World Championship title. Only this year, he’ll not have to face his arch rival, Yuzuru Hanyu of Japan. The Japanese figure skater has withdrawn his name from the championship because of an ankle injury he suffered during the Beijing Olympics.

With Hanyu out of the tournament, chances are high for the American figure skater to lift his fourth world championship trophy. Well, only time will tell whether the championship will be a piece of cake or something unexpected for Nathan.
