An AIBS webinar on science policy careers

Science students and early-career professionals often contact the American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) seeking information about "alternative science careers." A growing number of individuals are interested in employment that allows them to apply their scientific skills and training to the resolution of societal problems.  Whether an individual's interests are in education, health, environment, or the nation's investment in scientific research, a public policy career is one way that scientists can convert their education into action.

AIBS is sponsoring a webinar for those considering a career in science policy. It will be held on Monday, 21 December from 2:00-3:30pm Eastern Standard Time.
