Entrepreneurship

The best way to begin learning more about Entrepreneurship as a career option is to read "Getting Started with Entrepreneurship" under the Resources tab. Also under Resources is a Bookstore link that will take to a recommended list of books and resources on Entrepreneurship which you can buy online or find at your campus or local library.

Below, in the Articles section, you will find information about the experiences of life sciences PhDs and MDs who have chosen to pursue entrepreneurship as an option and/or entrepreneurs who want to share insights specifically for people of your professional background on entrepreneurship.
