Cíle předmětu
Seemingly peculiar name “BIOTOP” stands for BIOtech Talks tO PhD. In broad strokes, these seminar series aim to bridge the gap between the academia and industry and present various career options in the field of Life Sciences. Invited guests are scientists who worked in academia but then decided to continue their research career in private sector companies either in Czech Republic or abroad.The goals of these seminars are to i) create an awareness of the type of jobs that exist in the Industry sector, ii) help participants network, iii) learn what type of skills are required to transition to Industry and how they can be developed, iv) organize workshops and v) provide some consulting on job search and job interviews. These seminars are meant to help doctoral students but also master students or postdocs, understand what job opportunities exist in the Biotech/Industry space, how they can transition and how they should be using their time to develop skills and improve their CV.

The seminars are organized only in autumn semesters.
The seminars happen once in two-three weeks (usually Tuesdays) around 4-5pm at the University campus (room no. C03/117). Seminars and workshops last 1-2 hours. Changes might occur due to a conflict of schedule with invited speakers, particularly due to different timezones.
