– Interview prep is vital: research statement, job talk, chalk talk
– Think beyond science: connection to colleagues and institute culture matters
– Industry is a valid route; there too interviews are rigorous and science-driven

Well I was too busy talking and listening today to post during the event so catching up this evening.
This informational slide may help clinicians looking for a research opportunity!

Congratulations! Immunology is certainly the topic of today - I’m seeing this news whilst in an immunology session at #CrickCancerConf!
The 2025 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi “for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance.”

Heading in for day 2 of #CrickCancerConf
Session themes today are, “Inflammation and cancer” this morning, and “Therapy resistance” this afternoon. A top lineup of speakers again, and I’m so looking forward to exploring more posters too.
Reach out if attending and a conversation might help you!

Prevention vs cure? Both essential - and prevention of recurrence is underexplored
Can cancer learn from CVD? Maybe - but cancer’s complexity is a different beast

🔍 Final panel themes:
#OpenScience: enthusiasm for sharing, but metadata is key - raw data alone isn’t enough
Are we missing the bigger picture? Precision medicine has narrowed focus, but toxicity and recurrence remain major challenges

Discovery science still matters - and needs space for creativity
Future labs may be 50:50 wet/dry scientists
All wet-lab researchers should learn robust data analysis (e.g. R)
Clinicians + data scientists are key to future teams
