SUMMARY:Translating Biomedical Discoveries
DESCRIPTION:Are you curious about working in industry? Are you interested in collaborating with scientists and clinicians in industry? Do you want to better understand how your research might become a new drug or diagnostic tool? \n\nFollowing the two-day workshop\, Biogen will be conducting focus groups to determine specific areas of interest that are needed for graduate students and postdocs seeking to transition to industry careers. Let Careers Beyond Academia know you would like to participate by sending an email to gradcareers.cornell.edu. \nThis workshop features industry professionals from Biogen who will introduce careers at and away from the bench or clinic. Participants will learn about differences in key questions for advancing research in academia vs. industry. Topics include biomarkers\, regulatory\, clinical development\, clinical technologies\, preclinical research\, and talent acquisition/hiring. \nREGISTER by Sept. 28 to indicate you will attend. Please let us know if your plans change.
