Dear all,


Registration is now open for our next industry talk on 10 July 2024 at 2pm UK 
time. The talk by Steve Maginn, Chemical Computing Group / Molecular Graphics 
and Modelling Society, has the title "At the Interface of Academia and Industry 
for 35 Years... (aka - "You get less time for murder!")". Details and the free 
registration link can be found at https://www.ccpbiosim.ac.uk/chemcompgroup2024.



Abstract: I graduated with a PhD in chemistry from the University of Liverpool 
in 1989 and went straight into a research job in industry in a company that was 
then an international household name, ICI. At that time, such a role was 
considered something akin to a "job for life" - but things very soon changed. 
During the last 35 years I have spent my career working in science at the 
border between industry and academia, in a variety of both formal and informal 
roles, initially in research but moving gradually towards more commercial and 
organisational tasks in which my scientific background proved to be a strong 
asset. During this presentation, I will describe those roles and the reasoning 
behind the decisions that led to my taking them on, highlighting what I 
believe, despite ever-changing economic conditions and pressures, are the keys 
to a successful career in science; adaptability and networking.



Best wishes,

Sarah
