OPE Career Symposium

Postdocs are invited to get out of the lab and invest in their professional development!

The career symposium is a great opportunity for postdoctoral fellows to explore a variety of fulfilling and sustainable career options.

  • Keynote address
  • Four career panels about careers in education & outreach, research-intensive, science communication and science admin and management
  • Skills blasts on resume, interviewing and LinkedIn
  • Networking lunch, a reception, and many other great networking opportunities (for registered attendees only!)
  • A raffle of career-related books and free workshops!
