Webinar: Career Advice For Scientists and Other Smart Women

Please note: This webinar will take place from 6:30 – 7:45 PM ET. Please convert into your local time zone and mark your calendar accordingly.

Webinar description:
The scientific career is tough. The skills and ability to create knowledge about biology and science is uniquely difficult. In order to create a successful work product, typical characteristics include perfectionism and individuals who are not quitters. Typically, most of the experiments a scientist does do not work, thus these inherent traits are needed to succeed. However, these skills may not be beneficial when navigating a scientific career.

This webinar will also be viewed in different live Women in Science events throughout the HBA. We will be connecting the live events and webinar through the use of Twitter. Follow #HBAImpact and #HBAWIS to join the conversation.
