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 with Michelle shifts focus to why she considers herself to have been naïve about commercial life. She then talks about the traits and characteristics that make an individual a good candidate to succeed and enjoy being in industry, and alternatively, the characteristics that suggest an individual might not enjoy it so much or perform as well.

If you have questions or comments around these interviews or any of the topics discussed in this episode, we kindly ask that you submit reviews wherever you download the discourse. Alternatively, you can write to us directly at [email protected].
