Science Shaping Our World (SHOW) is an ongoing seminar and networking series that highlights cutting edge areas of life science research while promoting active inter and cross-disciplinary networking opportunities toward fostering the creation of relationships and opportunities geared to bridging bench to bedside.
June’s SHOW is a special event in the 2011 series that will focus on the art of networking and how this important tool can be leveraged toward maximizing professional and personal development. Networking has become a means unto itself by which to grow your career. Despite the almost constant buzz around maximizing networking opportunities, networking itself is a skill set that must be cultivated and nurtured. All too often networking is approached with no clear strategy or goal and as such valuable opportunities can go untapped. This special event will introduce and highlight the “art” of networking and provide a hands-on opportunity to extend your current networking skills.
