A lecture to broaden your perspective of the world of science. What are the possibilities in the commercial side of the laboratory branch? What is expected from you when you are a ‘salesman’ in this field and how did this change over the years? And the most important question of all: would you be a suitable candidate to enter the world of commerce in science? He will use his own experience in the field of commerce in science of the past eighteen years to guide you to the process of going from wearing a labcoat to wearing a tie.
