Everything Was Now Open – InBabyAttachMode

InBabyAttachMode Recovering AcademicWe know InBabyAttachMode (who we affectionately refer to as IBAM) from twitter and her Scientopia blog. She discusses her transition to industry in a Scientist position. She talks about her work in public-private collaborations and variation in job duties—even with the same job title.

IBAM also shares how leaving academia can lead to a wide-open world and how she found her way. Finding her own voice and navigating this new world presented new—but not insurmountable—challenges. In the end, IBAM found a better work-life balance and the light outside of the ivory tower.

You can find IBAM on twitter @InBabyAttachMode or on her blog at Scientopia.
