Let's Talk About Starting Your Own Company - ecSeq at Life Sciences Career Day Dresden
Posted on April 26, 2016
At the Life Sciences Career Day Dresden students from biology, biotechnology, biochemistry, medicine & pharmacy can get an impression about how their future could look like. We at ecSeq GmbH are very honored to represent the career path of a start-up company in the field of life sciences and to embold young scientists to realize their own ideas!
Deciding where to go after university is by far not trivial and has to be well thought out. Researchers have to realize that an academic career with the aim to get a professorship or the industrial path as an employee are not the only possibilities. We will explain and picture an interesting, but challenging middle course, the entrepreneurship. During our presentation we will tell the exciting story about starting our own company. We will describe how to turn the dream of a business into reality, talk about the initial period and finally, demonstrate how our daily work routine looks like. Afterwards, all upcoming questions will be answered.
The Life Science Career Day takes place on June 3rd, 2016 at the "Hörsaalzentrum" in Dresden, Germany.
It is organized by the biotechnology students initiative btS. We are looking forward to meet enthusiastic students who would like to discuss bioinformatics and its future with us.
These questions will be answered:
- What is Next-Generation Sequencing?
- What role does it already play in research and the daily clinical business?
- Can a start-up in the field of NGS bioinformatics be successful?
