    Almost 200 graduate students and postdoctoral (博 士后) researchers gathered April 21 for a career-development event at the annual meeting of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology where they learned about varieties of scientific careers, participated in skill-building workshops and networked with peers and speakers. The entire event was full of useful information1.

Your career path is less like a ladder and more like a jungle gym.

We're all programmed to see our career path as a series of linear (直线型) steps up to a final goal — undergraduate, graduate, post doctor, forever job — but this rarely happens.2.Don't be afraid to take a risk when opportunities present themselves if they will help you build your unique career.

Create a “skills toolbox" and use it.

The skills you develop as a trainee help you stand out in the job market. When you're in the lab, talk to your colleagues about their experiments. Challenge yourself to learn new techniques both in and out of your field. Work on developing critical thinking skills, which will help you however your career evolves.

And acquire skills outside the lab. Explore entrepreneurship, science writing and communication, policy, outreach, education, even art — whatever resonates with you. 3.

Communication skills are critical to success. Less jargon (行话),more passion.

Science is a language most people don't speak fluently. When communicating with diverse audiences, think of yourself as a translator. Eliminate jargon and create analogies (类推) to make your research accessible. Work on making your science story relevant to the audience, which may mean that you don't share every piece of data you have collected. Most importantly, practice.

Training courses like the ASBMB's Art of Science Communication are available to help you develop these skills.

4.

In professional interactions, be confident and remember that your skills and knowledge got you where you are today. Don't be frightened by people who question what you know, and don't let negative experiences diminish your self confidence.

Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. You don't need to see the entire staircase to take the next step.

With these words in mind, explore your options, network and talk to people in fields that interest you. Don't know where to start?
