MIT Biology and Whitehead Institute are vibrant communities on the leading edge of science. They offer scientific seminars, career panels, and active postdoc associations. I’ve had lots of opportunities to meet people at various companies and get advice and insight. In the Page lab, I’m constantly re-learning that scientific research doesn’t fit neatly into distinct disciplines and fields. It can be very powerful to think beyond the bounds of a specific project and see how a problem looks from a different angle.
