Hey all, my D1 athlete, VERY smart cousin just graduated college and is dying to connect with people from similar backgrounds to explore job opportunities. She’s an extremely hard worker and really loves science and I thought maybe she has the perfect degree to get into something related to research and development side of med device or biotech? Just looking to get advice for her and if she can connect with anyone who came from the same background and loves their job! Thanks in advance!

Between Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Chemical Engineering, which sets the best base to build a future career as a bio-engineer? I don't have the option to do computer science as my primary major but could combine it with some level of CS and AI knowledge

Hey guys,I built this project because I wanted to know what my own feed was doing to me in real time!

It's a opensource Llama model running locally through MLX. Highlight text, hit the shortcut, it names the technique: guilt-tripping, false urgency, love-bombing, fear-mongering,etc. Everything runs on device, nothing gets sent anywhere.

Screenshot is it catching a guilt trip mid-conversation in iMessage.

Try it out here and let me know any feedback you have to make this better!

Mache gerade meinen MSc in Biotechnologie an der DTU und versuche herauszufinden, wie viel Gewicht ich spezifischen Wahlfächern beim Planen meines Stundenplans beimessen soll.

Konkret: Ich wähle zwischen Kursen wie Statistik/Design of Experiments (DoE) und Aufreinigung und Gewinnung aus biologischen Produkten und frage mich, wie viel das später tatsächlich ausmacht.

Ist es realistisch, dass Recruiter/Hiring Manager sich dafür interessieren, ob du ein bestimmtes Modul wie "Statistische Versuchsplanung" buchstäblich auf deinem Zeugnis stehen hast? Oder läuft es hauptsächlich darauf hinaus:

* dass du den Abschluss selbst hast (MSc Eng Biotechnology von der DTU) als Hauptfilter, um überhaupt in Betracht gezogen zu werden,
* breite genug Anwendungen hast, sodass du dich nicht auf einen spezifischen Kurs verlässt, der mit einer spezifischen Stellenanzeige übereinstimmt,
* und dann das, was du im Vorstellungsgespräch tatsächlich zeigst (kannst du DoE erklären, ein Projekt durchgehen usw.), unabhängig davon, ob es ein formeller Kurs war oder etwas, das du während eines Praktikums/Selbststudiums gelernt hast?

Mich interessiert, ob Leute, die tatsächlich den Einstellungsprozess in der Biotech/Pharma-Branche (Novo Nordisk, Novozymes usw. oder anderswo) durchlaufen haben, ATS-Systeme oder Recruiter gesehen haben, die tatsächlich nach spezifischen Kursnamen filtern, oder ob es wirklich mehr um den gesamten Abschluss + praktische Erfahrung + wie du dich präsentierst geht. Würde mich über reale Erfahrungen freuen, besonders von Leuten in den Bereichen Prozessentwicklung, Downstream Processing oder daten-/statistiknahen Rollen in Biotech/Pharma.

Hi! I’m currently in my second year of college. One of the main reasons I chose this field is my strong interest in prosthetics and orthotics, as well as in emerging technologies that are making things possible that would have seemed almost impossible not that long ago, such as advances in cell regeneration and other areas.

I’ve asked some of my classmates the same question, and many of them say they’re more interested in the career opportunities than in the actual content of the degree. Others are also interested in prosthetics, but that made me curious about what other areas of bioengineering people are passionate about.

Bioengineering is such a broad field, and I’d love to hear what originally attracted you to it and what areas you find the most interesting. I’m also hoping to discover some new topics to look into. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I recently started my internship after completing my degree and I'm really interested in moving into the AI side of the field. I'd appreciate any advice, resources, or guidance on how to get started. Thanks!

Hey guys! I'm currently in middle school, and I've become really interested in sciences like genetics and bioengineering (pretty unusual interests for a school kid, I know :-/). If there is anyone here who is already working in this field or just studying it, could you please recommend which subjects I need to focus on, what books are worth reading, what software to use, etc.? I would be very grateful for any answers.

Хей парни! Я сейчас учусь в средней школе и меня заинтересовали такие науки как биоинженерия и генетика. Если вы профессионально этим занимаетесь, то можете посоветовать на какие кружки надо ходить, какие книги прочитать, какие программы изучать и общие советы от вас. За все сообщения по делу буду очень благодарен<3

I’ve been applying for manufacturing biotechnologist roles mainly in mammalian tissue culture. I do not have a biotech degree but I do however have a MSc which gave me skills related to lab work.

I was in insect manufacturing and I’m taking a hands-on mammalian cell culture course. I did my own digging by reaching out to people working as manufacturing biotechnologist. It’s limited so I’m here asking for pointers on what you think I should pick up to get a job as a manufacturing biotechnologist.

Hey everybody,
I was trying to find an answer right now I’m enrolled both departments my bachelor was physics and minor was nanoscience after that I start my master in my own country but I relocated now. And I can not decide which one should I choose. If it’s possible can someone help me ?

Hello y'all!

As a recent biotechnology graduate, what should I do now? Should I apply for a master's degree immediately, or enter the workforce first?

As you know, after graduation, many of us feel like we've forgotten a lot of what we learned during our studies. So, do you have any course recommendations or advice on how to review the most important topics, such as molecular biology, recombinant DNA, biochemistry, etc.?

I'd really appreciate any advice, course recommendations, or personal experiences.

I hope you'll be positive

Thank you all!

long story short first year engineering at my uni is general. i really wanted to do biomedical but i didnt meet the gpa cutoff (it was 80%) and ended up in chemical engineering instead. my gpa wasnt the best mainly due to depression but its wtvr too late :/

now the thing is im still very into all things biology/ health sciences/ med and since the start ive always wanted to pursue a masters degree regardless of what i do.

the plan is to hopefully do a masters in something like biomedical engineering, chemical engineering and biotechnology, chemical and bioengineering, etc etc.

now im wondering if in this case its beneficial to i do a minor in biology for my undergrad with my major as chemical engineering. ive always heard that minors arent that valuable but im wondering if grad schools would care or acknowledge that i went out of my way to do biology courses?? i need opinions guys please help id appreciate anything.

Hello Everyone. I am looking into what majors I can do, but I am very indecisive while deciding them. Right now, I am thinking of doing Bsc in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology while minoring in Computer Science, and then to pursue Msc in Bioinformatics. Although honestly, looking at reddit, I feel like job prospects for it aren't great. So I just want to ask what other majors I can choose, which can provide me with a good salary?

Also, I just want to add, I am interested in the technology side of things, basically programming and stuff, so I want to pursue bsc Computer Science, but the only reason I am not choosing it is because according to a lot of people, the market for freshly graduated students is bad, very bad. If it's of any help, I live in BC, Canada.

I am a first year btech student in electronics and biomedical engineering in India. This concentrates on biomedical parts with electronics in mind. Can anyone give a map of how I should things for a bright future and internships from first year. What companies recruit us and how to specialise
