Industry

We support molecular bioscientists working across a wide range of life science industries, organisations and roles.

Contributing their knowledge and skills to the commercialisation of science, industry scientists translate research into real-world impact through the generation of products and services, in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and healthcare, agriculture and food, and many more.

Industry themes across our work

Across our events, careers support, and other activites, we explore themes relevant to science and research conducted in commercial settings, aiming to equip our community with the knowledge for successful collaborations with, or careers within, industrial sectors.

 

'Perspectives in industry' themed issue

This themed issue in our co-owned journal, Emerging Topics in Life Sciences, contains short perspectives and concise mini-reviews exploring exciting developments in life science industry.
