This week, SurfingNASH offers an episode comprising two seperate interviews which focus on stories around career trajectories, transitions and entrepreneurship. Host Roger Green talks with Rachel Zayas (AGED Diagnostics) and Michelle Long (Novo Nordisk) about their unique stories and creating new opportunities amidst a field with broadening but sometimes opaque horizons. These discussions will be very informative for those who may be wondering about what's on the other side, whether it be commercial medicine or academia. Surf on to learn more as Rachel and Michelle expand on bridging these gaps, managing challenges and their excitement for new ways forward.

This conversation features the first part of our interview with Novo Nordisk International Medical Vice President, Michelle Long. The discussion focuses on the process by which Michelle came to leave academia and transition to corporate life. Along the way, she covers the importance of mentorship as well as deeply understanding what an individual finds exciting about a career in academia and, more specifically in Michelle’s case, academic research.
