This short is an excerpt from the full Career Shorts Ep 2 with Dr Nimish Gera, head of biologics at Mythic Therapeutics. This series is hosted by the Antibody Society as a series where we talk to scientists and individuals working within the world of antibodies about the experiences that have shaped their careers and have got them to where they are today. Our goal by sharing their experiences and advice is to empower the next generation of scientists and leaders working in this field and beyond to make confident and empowered decisions.
