How long did the process of getting an O1 visa take?

Cool, I've sent you a follow up email.

I know that Australian citizens can use the E3 visa for working in the US. Do you know if Australian citizens can start companies in the US using the E3 visa? Is it something like, you work for the company you founded? What happens if the company fails, or runs out of money?

EDIT: Updated question.

I've got a background in machine learning (NLP, and a little bit of vision) and electrical engineering, but I know very little about biology. Essentially, all I know is a working knowledge based on what I remember from high school. However, I'm incredibly fascinated by some of these recent developments in making biology more computational! I've started working through some Coursera courses on bioinformatics systems biology, and have been totally engrossed so far!

I noticed that the Parker Institute is a non-profit? I was curious what kind of ramp-up path you offer people like me, with a background in ML, and are excited to learn some more biology if they join the team? Since you're a non-profit, I was wondering if there'd be any interest in helping to curate a bunch of links/resources/etc. so people like me can learn and ramp-up in our spare time? I guess I'm wondering if it's difficult to hire for this role. So maybe other non-profits, e.g. J. Craig Venter Institute may also be interested in helping to curate these resources to help increase supply of possible hires?

Do you know what their government's position on these currencies is?
