In her wonderful bk on complexity, @MelMitchell1 points out that even complexity experts can't seem to agree on what exactly the term means. I wonder if same is true for biopharma R&D leaders who now all seem to invoke "human causal biology"... https://t.co/Aep2ABbyrz @zakkohane

Ok, one might ask, so what's the advantage of big pharmas then? Discussed here https://t.co/07ERVgFM75, but tl;dr is they can absorb failures - same reason Jobs was pushing (per Catmull) to have Pixar acquired by Disney; creative pursuits->high failure rate, need to survive... https://t.co/JWf61qLpY9
