Quotes The question is whether my body isn’t finished fighting. I don’t know what will happen going forward, but the more time passes the better chance I have of staying healthy. It’s part of my struggle to survive. Cancer made me want to find completely new ways to integrate data. I have the knowledge and integrative capabilities that not many have, and I want to take advantage of my strengths. Not just for Google, but for the State of Israel. I can’t stand having all my talents going to waste, although I’m not inventing anything new. I still feel a little bit like Cinderella, who feels like she’s here by mistake. I work with some of the smartest people in the world, but I don’t think I’m the smartest person in the room. Every time I do something, I think it’s just pure luck that makes me succeed But I know that I have the ability to organize data. Maybe it’s related to my time spent as the Chief Scientist of Israel, or my ability to organize things, and coordinate research projects with State-approved budgets. When I volunteered at the Committee for National Infrastructure, I discovered that I can do many things that others can’t. For me, cancer became sort of a hobby, since dealing with it exposed me to a lot of medical information, and I became drawn to finding better ways to integrate that data.
