Change is afoot….. Now what do I do?

corporation • Everyone will work for someone in the future…
• In the Pharmaceutical Industry: • High-throughput screening is not as productive as hoped • More consolidation is coming • …and more Spin outs • More research being done in smaller organizations
• Big data will change everything

Questions you need to answer for yourself • Would I enjoy research, clinical or bench, all day, every day? • Are you willing to work in a team environment? • Will you feel good about your contribution to medicine in an industry
setting? • Are you comfortable defending clinical perspectives in an environment of
individuals who are not clinically trained?...and will challenge you? • Can you accept criticism of your data by a skeptical audience?
