Location: Zoom
Molecular/Genomic epidemiologist that studied birth defects, nutrition, genomics/multi-omics, epigenetic clocks (and biological aging), and chromosomal instability measures. Did 3 postdocs (UCLA, Framingham Heart Study, NIH intramural) + 7 years at a startup based on my research + teaching at UCSD + academic research at Sutter/UCSF.
Message from the Host:
I could be most helpful for PhD students who are exploring career paths in government vs industry vs academia.
Come prepared to discuss:
What career paths are you interested in exploring (academic research, government, industry)?
What area of work/research are you interested in?
What's your work/research background (ok if none)?
