Stephanie Wisner
Stephanie Wisner began as a chemistry major unsure where she fit.
She didn’t want to spend a decade pursuing a PhD.
She didn’t want to abandon science.
So she asked a bigger question:
What if entrepreneurship could be applied to medicine?
That question became a book.
The book became a consulting business.
The consulting work became a startup.
That startup became Centivax.
She is now:
• Co-Founder at Centivax
• Forbes 30 Under 30
• Visiting Faculty at Cornell
• A biotech thought leader

“If you combine science with entrepreneurship, you can solve the world’s biggest problems.”
—Stephanie Wisner
What Changed?
Before the book:
A scientist searching for direction.
After the book:
A biotech entrepreneur shaping the future of medicine.
The writing forced clarity.
The interviews built connections.
The positioning created opportunity.
The book wasn’t a side project.
It was a strategic pivot.
