At the Career Blitz 24+ PhD-trained scientists from more than a dozen different career tracks will be on hand in a casual setting to answer your questions about what they do, how they navigated their career paths, and how you can follow in their footsteps. Each scientist, or pair of scientists with similar careers, will briefly describe their career and then answer questions from individuals interested in networking.
Bios of all visiting scientists are available at the event website: http://tibbs.unc.edu/virtual-career-blitz-2021/
