Curious about what how you can use your graduate degree to contribute to the clinical development process in industry? Join us for an interactive session designed for PhD students and postdocs who want to explore what happens after a promising discovery leaves the lab and how therapies actually make it to patients. We’ll walk through real-world case studies to unpack the clinical development process—covering key milestones, tough decisions, and the various roles you can have in the team that it takes to move a drug forward. Whether you’re thinking about a career in clinical research or just want to understand how your science can directly impact patient lives, this is a great chance to learn, ask questions, and connect.
