This fireside chat will feature Henry Ginsberg, MD and Henry Colecraft, PhD, two accomplished leaders in academic medicine and biomedical research, in conversation with Andrew J. Einstein, MD, PhD, who will moderate the discussion. The informal format is designed to encourage open, candid conversation, with light refreshments provided.
The discussion will focus on career development in academic medicine, with particular emphasis on the experiences and needs of early clinical investigators navigating an increasingly complex and uncertain environment. This event is intended for assistant professors as well as junior and mid-career faculty seeking insight, mentorship, and community as they advance their academic careers.
