BUPC-SJF Scientists to Follow

Beginning 2021: 

For the 2nd edition, the BUPC-SJF is inviting promising early career scientists and clinicians (undergrads, grad students, postdocs and early career PIs) to meet over a virtual 1 hour informal conversation as part of our ‘Scientists to Follow’ seminar series. The goal is to have an informal discussion about career trajectories of our invited guests belonging to traditionally underrepresented groups (URG) in academia/ medicine/ industry, to learn about the hurdles they have/had to overcome on their way and to  celebrate our guest speakers via the BUPC’s wide community reach.

Meet our BUPC-SJF ‘Scientists to Follow’ For Spring-Summer 2021
