With remarkable teammates by your side, anything is possible.

Just a couple of days ago, our dedicated staff showed up ready to support one of our most attended Career Development Seminars yet!

Hundreds of guests eagerly filed in to learn from Dr. Bik, and whether welcoming attendees, offering resources, or answering questions, each person played a role in making the event a success.

So grateful for this incredible team!

We love how these programs bring together professionals from across WashU Medicine, with our newest scholars representing the Departments of Psychiatry, Otolaryngology, and the WashU Med Department of Medicine. By connecting across disciplines, our scholars can learn from one another, collaborate, and contribute to the future of research and medicine. We can’t wait to see what they accomplish!
