Know Your Biophysicist 2024

Trainees from across Canada (and the USA) had the opportunity to hear from several biophysicists in academia and industry about the diverse career paths that led to their current positions. Attendees participated in engaging discussions on various aspects of career development, including key considerations when job hunting, initial steps for starting a company, and the qualities employers seek in new hires.

Thank you to our career speakers for sharing their time and expertise, and to everyone who attended!

Biophysics Week (March 18 - 22, 2024)

Virtual

During Biophysics week, we heard from Dr. John Dutcher about his experience in transforming a serendipitous discovery of a unique nanoparticle in his lab into a biotechnology company. We also followed along with Sara Evans as she led a gastronomy cooking class on jellies while teaching us the underlying science and showing us neat experiments we can do in our own home.

See Sara’s gastronomy cooking class event highlighted in the Biophysical Society Newsletter here.
