I specialize in connecting life sciences companies with top-tier talent and recently had the opportunity to interview Sunny Trivedi, a senior scientist in spatial biology. Sunny shares his journey from India to the U.S. and delves into the technical aspects of spatial biology that fascinate him.
The conversation reveals a lot about the practical, ethical, and motivational aspects of working in life sciences; from the ‘immediate impact’ one can have when working in the industry as a major advantage of moving from academia, the dual-sided nature of patents, the role of mentors, and the personal attributes needed to thrive in the field, such as passion and adaptability.
