Meet the speaker
Introducing another guest for our upcoming EMBSI events! Dr. Laura M. is a Toxicologist with ExxonMobil Biomedical Sciences Inc (EMBSI).
She says, "I personally enjoy being able to learn from an experience and use those learnings to help guide others (there’s no need to do things the hard way twice). One of the things I like most about working at EMBSI is that it is a place that encourages that type of thinking, and I’ve been able to help drive and contribute to guidance and best practices documents on chemical registration processes and approaches to occupational health."
*Want to meet Laura and hear more?*
Join us on Jan 25th and Feb 8th to learn from Laura and her colleagues about the work she does, the team she gets to do it with, and whether a similar role might be a good fit for your own career! Dr. Maurer and a few PhD colleagues from EMBSI will provide an inside look at career opportunities at EMBSI and give you a chance to ask your questions about their journeys, the company, team culture, and the impact they hope to make on the world’s energy industry.
