8 Not So Secret Ways to Prolong Your Life

We live in a world where the pursuit of happiness and high stress ambition go hand in hand. We strive, and we seek and we pursue to our peril. But we must remember that without health, aspirations are irrelevant. What can we do to reverse the age old trend, we need to slow down. I am a former Cardiovascular Perfusionist Clinician and passionate in educating our people in ways to improve our health and reduce the monumental impact of high stress. I do presentations on Heart Disease and Diabetes consequences as well. High stress is a huge perpetrator and I teach ways to reverse that trend via the Eight Laws of Health principle.

The Pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical, Biotech and Medical Device industries are very robust and offer many exciting opportunities to qualified candidates. The industry develops cleaner energy sources, furthers medicine and produces cures, and develops higher-yielding crops to feed the world’s growing population. Whether you have spent the past few years working on a PhD or MD or are about to finish your first degree, entering the biotech industry is an alternative to the more conventional life-science paths that lead through medical school or end in academia. However, many struggle to transition into this arena because it can be tough to know where to begin. I have made the transition into this industry and would like to share secrets to a successful career changing move.

The biotech industry doesn’t just attract people starting out in the world of work: half of all biotech job-seekers in 2019 were midway through their career. The industry is flexible enough to have positions for many who want to make the switch. As well as advanced research positions, jobs in regulatory science and governmental policy are all options for people with more experience. My objective is to highlight how whichever biotech career path you choose, there are skills you will need that aren’t necessarily found in the classroom: for example:

• "It’s not enough to be a technical whizz", but you must be a team player.
• No matter what your position in biotech, good communication is a key asset and may be something you will have to cultivate on your own.
• Networking will be a critical element in landing a key job. If you are not sure what type of position would best suit you, speak to people in the industry.
• Finally as you matriculate in whatever your area of interest, take a business or marketing class to facilitate your understanding of the business side of the science. This will give a leg up in the recruitment process.
