Your Career Path in Science

Thursday, November 10th, 2011
Take a good look at your career path in science

Take a good look at your career path in science

Have you chosen your career path in Science?

Do you know what you want to do in your chosen career?

Take the time to look into what you want to do with your qualifications and experience to date. A common question I am asked by both graduates and with 2-3 years relevant industry experience is “Where do I go from here?”.  A common question from employers is “What job would they like to progress to next?”, and believe it or not the two go hand in hand when it comes to job seeking.

For example, those of you with a base degree in Biochemistry, Biomedical Science or Pharmacy have a lot more options that you may think, and it is those of you who have done your research who are already on this path.

The one common denominator of these types of areas is Research, namely in the Pharmaceutical world. There are so many directions you can go within the Pharmaceutical industry, for example clinical trials, medical affairs, clinical research, clinical analysis ….. the list goes on!

A lot of Science graduates go into Quality testing and Lab Analyst jobs as a means to get Scientific experience post graduation.  If you are one of those, take a look around the company and see what departments there are either inhouse or on a global level – the only way you can go is up.

Here is an example of a path you could look into:

Lab Anaylst — Clinical Biochemist  — Scientific Advisor — Clinical Trials Associate — Product Manager — Medical Science Liaison

For those in Pharmacy….. have a think about pharmacovigilence!

The lists and the combinations of career path in science go on and on, so my advice is to look into your career path in Science – it is up to you how far you take it! There are jobs in Science and jobs in Pharmaceutical, all you need to do is decide which direction you want to take and go with it.

Fantastic New Development for Cystic Fibrosis!

Fantastic new development for Cystic Fibrosis!

Fantastic new development for Cystic Fibrosis!

Fantastic new development for Cystic Fibrosis!

EU Approval for TOBI Podhaler comes as great news for cystic fibrosis patients across the country. TOBI Podhaler, an inhaled therapy for patients with cystic fibrosis, is to be used with patients 6years+ for suppression of chronic lung infections.

“With the approval of the TOBI Podhaler in Europe, and innovative version of an established treatment has become available that will improve the delivery of tobramycin and should have a positive impact on patients’ quality of life”,  said Professor Stuart Elborn, President of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society and Professor of Respiratory Medicine at Queens University.

As a result of this approval, it means that the treatment can now be administered with a user-friendly and compact device in comparison to the previously administered nebuliser. This also reduces the treatment time from 20 minutes down to an amazing 5-6 minutes, delivering a higher level of patient satisfaction.

Dr. Greg Hays of Novartis said “It is an important symbol of our long term commitment to improving the quality of care for patients with this serious and potentially life-threatening disease.”
