Embracing Growth: Insights from my Early Career

Martin’s presentation reflected on his career so far and included seven lessons learned. He offered advice for incoming professionals and students, such as finding as many mentors as possible, reaching out to collaborators to add a fresh perspective to your work and accepting changes in interest over time.

Martin encourages students to “Bloom where you are planted – enjoy where you are and stop comparing yourself to others. Everyone has their own place to succeed,” and to “find the right balance of challenge and support in your own life.”
