Overview
Team meetings, work in the lab (sample preparation, analysis, etc...), data processing, writing up, prepare presentations for meetings
Skills
I had plenty of opportunities to further develop both my technical skills and in-depth knowledge in a various range of analytical techniques. I also developed soft skills such as problem-solving, time management, written and spoken communication and extended my proficiency as a scientist by presenting my work to other scientist and wider teams.
Responsibilities
After a thorough 2 months training programme, I was given a lot of responsabilities: method development and validation for example.
Support & Guidance
Everyone iseally busy but always ready to help. I had bi-weekly meetings with my supervisor and minthly meetings with my line manager.
Culture
Inclusivity and diversity are crucial in AstraZeneca's culture. People are warm welcoming, very friendly and always happy to help.
Your Impressions
