Saturday 30 August - EMBO Career Day

“Attending the career development workshops was very useful to me as I’m now at a changing point in my career. Talking to the speakers and facilitators made me aware of the possibilities, including ones outside of academia, that are available to me.”

— Adriana Goncalves, PhD student at CeMM, Vienna | participant in the EMBO Career Day 2011

 

The EMBO Career Day offers a number of career development workshops for young scientists - PhD students and early postdocs - who will soon face the decision whether to pursue a career within or outside of academia.  This is complemented by a mentoring lunch session exploring non-academic career options.
