Life Sciences Forum: What's next? Exploring careers in life sciences from industry to academia

Organised by the Blizard Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry in collaboration with the School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences, Faculty of Science and Engineering.

Hear from Queen Mary University of London’s science alumni about different career paths they have taken in the life sciences sector from industry to academia.

Former Biomedical Sciences, Neuroscience, and Biology undergraduates will share their career paths and will answer your questions. Each week there will be a different panel of alumni sharing their personal experience after graduating from Queen Mary University of London. You will also have the chance to hear from former postgraduate students, research assistants and post-doctoral fellows.

A short, very informal, introduction from each panel member will be followed by plenty of opportunities for you to ask questions, and gain tips/advice from the speakers.

There will be different dates which you can choose to attend, starting with:

  •     Wednesday 25 January, 6.00-7.30pm GMT (in this session, speakers will discuss career paths in academia and in industry)
        Register on Eventbrite
  •     Wednesday 1 February, 6.00-7.30pm GMT (in this session, speakers will discuss career paths in industry, in a charity and as a graduate student entering Medical School)
