BioMed Research Career Fair '08
The consortium of offices representing postdoctoral trainees at 
Harvard Medical School and affiliated hospitals would like to invite 
you to participate in the 1st Annual BioMed Research Career Fair. 
Held in conjunction with this year's Annual Meeting of the National 
Postdoctoral Association (NPA), it will be the first career fair of 
its kind in the Longwood Medical area.

The BioMed Research Career Fair is intended to highlight the many 
career opportunities that exist for graduate students and postdocs in 
the biomedical and life sciences. From bio-tech startups to 
consulting, the research expertise and skill set acquired during 
advanced scientific training makes you top candidates for recruiters 
and employers. 

This free one-day BioMed Research Career Fair will be held at the 
Joseph B. Martin Conference Center at Harvard Medical School on April 
24, 2008.
