iJOBS and Erdos Institute Seminar: Precision Medicine Careers

Event Description

Precision medicine is a tailored healthcare approach that customizes treatments and prevention strategies based on an individual's unique genetic makeup, environment, and lifestyle. By integrating vast amounts of data from various sources like genomics, big data, and AI, it aims to move beyond a one-size-fits-all model to offer more precise diagnoses, effective treatments, and proactive disease prevention. Come hear from Rutgers alum Ryma Benayed, PhD, to learn how she transitioned from graduate school to working at Memorial Sloan Kettering as the Director of the Clinical Next Generation Sequencing Laboratory to Executive Director of Precision Medicine at AstraZeneca. She will advise current trainees how to prepare for careers in the field of precision medicine.
