Hi all,

I recently received my PhD in Pharmacology from the University of Washington. I have had a dismal time applying for jobs since July of 2024. Can anyone recommend me to or make an introduction to your contacts for entry level positions in pharma/biotech? I have experience with R and Python for bioinformatics/RNA seq analyses, behavioral neuroscience (in vivo), and molecular biology. Thank you for you time and consideration!

What law firm is your favorite for run of the mill employment issues in the US and internationally (India, Australia, UK, Germany, etc.).

So, who are you using and are you happy?
