By Lauren Celano, CEO, Propel Careers
 In light of my presentation tomorrow at the North Carolina Biotech Center Spring Jobs Workshop, I decided to re-post a blog that I wrote focusing on transferable skills. This is such an important topic and one that is relevant throughout your career.
The years of academic research, perfecting your techniques, long hours, and design of novel experiments provides you with so much more than just a strong scientific foundation. As you perform your research, analyze results, and prepare your publications, grants, and presentations, you are using and building many other non-scientific skills which will benefit you as you grow in your career. Whether you pursue an academic path or an industry one, these skills are important to realize and cultivate to ensure a successful career. To read more, click here:
