Networking and Personal Branding The Workshop 2:30 pm - 4:00 pm, Room 210 Navigating the complexities of a career in science is difficult. Making new, important discoveries takes hard work, perseverance, and luck. Along with these skills, career success increasingly hinges on complex social fac- tors including establishing independent collaborations, peer and mentor support networks, and community name recognition. In this interactive workshop we will discuss the essential importance of networking in sci- ence careers, and of developing a recognizable personal brand to help promote developing scientists in the ever-competitive and complex job market.
