Now we own one point seven percent of GSK valued at one point three billion US dollars. Emma, great to have you here. Wonderful to be here. Thanks for having me. And I believe this is the second podcast ever in your life. Second ever. Wow. Looking forward uh very much to the conversation.

Mm. Now which areas of research excites you the most just now. Uh well

I mean it is literally the point of our company is to innovate and that's where we allocate most of our capital. So in fact since I've been in this job I think we've nearly doubled our R and D spend. uh organically, and then of course opened up a huge amount of partnerships that we do externally and business development. To supplement the pipeline. Um
