To help you decide why you should attend, below we have shared some of the learnings from our events so far this year. In February, at the London Bioscience Innovation Centre, we learnt about how antimicrobial resistance, zoonotic diseases, food safety, and climate change are all One Health issues that are linked by the interfaces between humans, animals, and the environment. During this event it was apparent that more could be done around raising awareness and bridging the gaps between different disciplines to accelerate innovation. If you are interested in learning more, check out the One Region – One Health event coming up in September.

During our Building Life Science Adventures careers conference, Priya Kalia, SciTribe Ltd, moderated a panel discussion on The Role of Social Media in Recruitment & Career Development. LinkedIn and emerging AI tools such as ChatGPT were mentioned as being useful to help attract talent and showcase your skills to potential employers. You can learn more about digital marketing at our next Life Science Marketing Group on 15 May, details are below. Monalisa Breazu, Learning & Development Administrator shared a roundup of insights in the Building Life Science Adventures 2024 – An Overview article.

Finally, the power of people! If you happen to be reading this article in time to register for our BioWednesday Cambridge Social on 1 May, then we look forward to seeing you there!
