Dr. Masha Fridkis-Hareli will give an interactive presentation that 
explores career opportunities outside academia. Based on her personal 
experiences in academia and industry, she will discuss differences 
between these two sectors and describe the skill set needed to make this 
transition smooth and enjoyable. Her presentation is best fitted to 
graduate and post-doctoral scientists who are considering transitioning 
to industry but have no insider view of the process.

Dr. Hareli Masha is an immunologist, consultant and inventor with over 
20 years of experience in academia and industry. She completed her PhD 
and postdoctoral work, and was a Principal Investigator at the Dana 
Farber Cancer Institute. She worked for a number of biotechnology and 
contract research companies including Resolvyx Pharmaceuticals, Charles 
River Laboratories, Taligen Therapeutics and Alexion Pharmaceuticals, 
before founding ATR, LLC that provides strategic and operational 
services in translational research.
