My Session Status

When:
2:45 PM, Saturday 13 Jun 2026 (1 hour)
Many postdocs discover meaningful, impactful careers outside the traditional academic or industry pathways. This panel seeks to highlight the breadth of alternative careers, such as science communication, research administration, nonprofit work and more. Postdocs will hear about how to evaluate which paths align with their strengths, what hiring processes look like, and how to present their academic expertise to employers in new sectors.
