When I speak with students interested in FAS career, I share some learnings from my own transition. But my message is clear - serendipity. However, I never have enough time to share it in detail. So for the first time ever, I'm sharing the FULL story of how I became Field Application Scientist.

As you near your graduation, have you ever felt like an imposter? Or did you feel complete lack of confidence in your ability to get a job? Or have a clue what it even could be? In this episode I share 3 steps that are KEY to preparing your mindset for job hunting, that will boost your confidence, destroy the "imposter" within you and allow you to embrace failures as blessings!

On the first episode of FAS Conversations, I'm joined by Roshan D'Souza - Sr. Field Application Scientist, who shares his experience transitioning into FAS role and the lessons he learned along the way.

In the first episode for 2023, I talk about the biotech layoffs and their impact on trajectory of the industry. I also give my thoughts if it’s still the industry where anyone can have a rewarding career.

My opinion about dealing with information overload and what is the truth?

In this episode I give my opinion about GMOs, using both my biomedical research experience as well as a healthy dose of skepticism as a member of the community. Tune in to learn about what GMOs are, what they’re ain’t and whether there is any merit to reports of side effects of GMO consumption.

On this episode I react to the video I made last year right after I graduated. I discuss how my thinking has and hasn't evolved and how finishing the PhD influences your brain (but only temporarily). Part 1 is out, Part 2 coming out soon!
