What career options are out there for individuals interested in aging research? How can I use my training to land a position outside of the traditional university setting? Join the GSA Health Sciences Mentorship Workgroup as we host a panel discussion with GSA members in government, nonprofit, and private industry positions. Speakers will share about their career trajectories, differences between university and nonuniversity careers, and specific skills, training, or networking experiences that may be useful to land a nonacademic job. The discussion will be moderated by Dr. Kyle Moored (Assistant Scientist, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health) and Dr. TaiTe Su (Postdoctoral Researcher, University of Toronto) and include time for audience questions. We hope this webinar will be especially useful for early career researchers and individuals considering careers outside of a traditional academic setting.
