A new life beyond academia
I recently swapped a career in biochemistry for one in the conservation of Nature, In this ‘After the Paper’ blog I summarise some of the background to my journey from the nanometre scale to the macro scale and some current goals and ambitions.

Hi Karon
Thanks for the kind words. I would have thought your experiences of working in the third sector will provide you with a good grounding for a change in direction to an NGOP devoted to Nature and its conservation. I had only volunteer charity experience to draw upon (and no related to the work of the RSPB), so I would encourage you to apply for suitable positions when they appear. Your enthusiasm and dedication to the job will help you overcome any knowledge gaps that you will face.
Good luck!
