ÖGMBT YOUNG LIFE SCIENTISTS
AUSTRIA
Young Life Scientists Austria (YLSA) is the bottom-up initiative of the Austrian Association of Molecular Life Sciences and Biotechnology (ÖGMBT), from and for young scientists. The goal is to establish a network among young life scientists within the association.
As a young life scientist throughout your study and career steps you
probably were wondering:
What are my possibilities, opportunities after any level of life science degree? Which way is the right one and how to make the best out of the knowledge and experience I gained during my studies? What are transferable skills scientists have? How to activate, engage yourself and network in the life science, biotech, and pharma community? How to gain new skills or write a perfect job application? How to keep up with the state-of-the-art jobs and be informed about job openings throughout Austria?
These are just a few of the questions that worry young life scientists eager to succeed and gain the most out of their career path.
