Women in Science (WIS) - Navigating Your Scientific Career
The HBA Women in Science (WIS) affinity group provides women in scientific roles with professional support for their career advancement through development programs while facilitating networking and collaboration.
The HBA Pacific Region is pleased to announce the first WIS Signature event featuring leaders from across the healthcare industry. We invite members with a medical or scientific degree and/or working in a research, medical or regulatory function within the healthcare industry to attend. Members will have an opportunity to network with those who have either found a fulfilling direction in their scientific careers or have experience in making a career transition within the healthcare industry. Coaching, mentoring, and receiving advice from those who share a passion for science and have advanced their careers on different paths will be priceless.
