Ep 28 – Check in Episode – what is upcoming for Jim and Lauren and some trends/data we are paying attention to - Propelling Careers Podcast

Since Labor Day just happened, Jim and Lauren thought we would do a check in episode as we get ready for the remainder of the year to check in on this year and what’s in store for the next few months for both of us. We also cover a few trends/data we are paying attention to relevant to our work such as the Inflation reduction act’s (IRA’s) impact on life sciences, Immigration, and the NIH’ work on revisioning the postdoc.   Labor day seems to be the official end of summer, so now things kick into high gear as we finish off 2024.  We hope you enjoy listening!    Lauren Celano, CEO of Propel Careers and Jim Gould, the Director for Postdoctoral Affairs at Harvard Medical School, launched this podcast as a way for us to share our advice, insights, and reflections to help others navigate their careers. As we develop new episodes, this podcast will provide insights regarding career advice to help listeners navigate career choices and become more confident in their decisions. We look forward to busting myths and providing real life, timely, and accurate advice. Jim and Lauren work heavily with Ph.D. trained scientists, but the advice we provide can be applicable to other audiences. We hope you enjoy listening!
