From Scientist to CEO: Watch the Caltech Magazine Event on May 31

"From Scientist to CEO" is the inaugural Behind the Book: Caltech Magazine Edition panel discussion. This new event series aims to delve deeper into the issues and stories included in each print issue of Caltech magazine, which is published in the spring and fall of each calendar year.

Caltech science writer Lori Dajose (BS '15), will moderate a conversation between Jess Adkins, Smits Family Professor of Geochemistry and Global Environmental Science and CEO of Calcarea; and Julie Schoenfeld, Caltech's entrepreneur in residence for physical sciences, who will discuss the process of taking an idea from the lab into the commercial sector, the learning curve involved with running a company after working in academia, and the ways in which Caltech can assist entrepreneurs across campus. The event will take place in Beckman Auditorium and be broadcast live to a virtual-only audience on Zoom.

The event is free, though you must register to attend. Please click here to register.
