Link: NatureJobs and Stanford Team Up with Seminars on Biotech Careers [Preview]

If you are considering making the jump from academia to biotech, check out the "Industry Insights" online seminar series produced by NatureJobs and the Stanford School of Medicine Career Center (SoMCC). With only two video segments so far, the "series" is a little thin, but the choice selection of companies represented makes the series particularly informative. In the first installment, Michael Alvarez, founder and director of SoMCC, speaks with Hal Barron, Senior VP at Genentech, named in 2006 by Fortune magazine as the best company to work for and by Science magazine as the top employer and most admired company for the fifth year in a row. In the second segment, Alvarez speaks with Nandini Tandon, venture partner with MDS Capital, about biotech invesment and careers combining science, banking and finance. Tandon's PowerPoint presentation slides (shown above) are also available on the website.
