Join Career Services for this informational online Q&A session with Julie Horowitz, Ph.D. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-horowitz-a93ab270/), a former postdoc and current manager at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals. Dr. Horowitz will answer questions that you may have about how to identify and apply for postdoc opportunities in industry. She will provide advice on what you can do when you start your search, and answer any questions you have on where and how you can seek out postdoc opportunities in industry. This discussion will be a valuable resource for anyone considering a postdoc once they have finished with their PhD – even if you are still several years from finishing up right now.
