    OMGenomics Podcast

    A casual conversational podcast about the non-scientific parts of life in the biotech industry, this show contains conversations about topics including career paths, side hustles, and whatever is going on in the field right now. Hosted by Maria Nattestad and Robert Aboukhalil, this show includes a mix of interviews with guests doing interesting things in this space, answering listener questions, and otherwise just talking about topics we think are interesting, all while avoiding the actual science as much as possible.
    We’re taking the conversations we might have at a conference cocktail hour and bringing them to you on your walk, drive, or while you do dishes.

    002: You Might be an Imposter Mar 05, 2023

    Accepting that we're all imposters in bioinformatics, we tell stories from our own careers. Topics: * Robert's grad school experience in a biology program coming from a computer engineering background. * Maria's experience interviewing at grad schools. * "You can't just go around being like, I'm an idiot. Even if you feel like an idiot, that's just not helpful."

    003: Job hopping Apr 05, 2023

    Inspired by opinions seen on Twitter, we discuss whether people should stay much more than 1 year per company to avoid being judged by future employers as a job-hopper, and whether companies should be discriminating this way. Topics: * Benefits of job hopping, early versus late in your career. * A debatable statement by chatGPT. * Is it ethically okay? disloyal? greedy? * Being loyal to a corporate entity that may have no feelings for you. * How can employers/teams deal with the reality of short stints. * The bus/lottery factor. * But isn't this different for biotech than tech?

    004: The PhD question with Steve Osazuwa May 05, 2023

    Our guest Steve Osazuwa helps us answer the PhD question (namely, should you do one?). Since we both have PhDs, we are bringing on our friend Steve who has been successful in bioinformatics without a PhD to add his perspectives. Topics: * How Steve ended up in bioinformatics. * Starting a PhD after working in industry. * What Steve's barber thinks about his colleagues' advice. * Would we do a PhD again? * The opportunity cost of doing a PhD instead of going directly to industry.
