  • From PCR to Portfolio: Christine Aylward is Funding Life Sciences

    From PCR to Portfolio: Christine Aylward is Funding Life Sciences
    Apr 22 2026
    Christine Aylward is the founder and managing partner of Magnetic Ventures, a VC built on a thesis: the future of life sciences will be technology-driven. Her bet, placed in 2018, is paying off. Her path to venture capital is unique. She started at Roche, working on PCR, arguably the most revolutionary technology at the intersection of tech and life sciences in the last century. Then she co-founded a media company with Natalie Portman. Then she launched Magnetic, raising money for companies using machine learning to transform drug discovery, clinical trials, and more. Jim and Christine get into what it really takes to spot transformative science before it's obvious, why machine learning matters more than the word AI, and why the translation from technology to product is so hard.

His heart attack on Father’s Day in 2024 was a wake up call. Today he is working with Amgen to explain why prevention, early detection, and education are critical, especially in communities that are often overlooked. He also breaks down the realities of cardiovascular risk, the role of lifestyle and genetics, and what people can do right now to better protect their heart health. This conversation goes beyond the stats and science. It is about using influence for impact.

    Reclaim Your Nature with Jamie Wheal
    Apr 8 2026
    Peak performance expert Jamie Wheal explores why modern wellness culture may be overcomplicating what it means to feel whole, resilient, and alive. As the founder of Flow Genome Project and co-author of Stealing Fire and Recapture the Rapture, Wheal blends psychology, neuroscience, and ancient practices to explain how humans access peak states, meaning, and connection. He challenges the billion-dollar biohacking industry, arguing that many tools we seek externally already exist within our physiology and rituals practiced for millennia. From breath rhythms embedded in prayer to the transformative power of time in nature, Wheal explains why getting outside, stepping away from screens, and confronting mortality can reconnect us to ourselves. The conversation explores flow states, psychedelics and mental health, meaning in the age of AI, and why no algorithm can tell you what your soul actually needs. In a hyperconnected world, Wheal makes a compelling case for reclaiming direct experience, embodied practice, and the courage to live fully aware of life’s
