Get Ahead - Turn Failure to Success
Open to view video.  |   Closed captions available
Open to view video.  |   Closed captions available Success: What's the science behind it? Just like the scientific method, failure is an essential part of the process, and is often inevitable. Knowing how to turn failure into success makes most people's heads spin, however the solution is simple: don't work harder...work smarter. It might sound hard to believe, but there's evidence to support the hypothesis: Failing early and making quick recoveries will predict future success. Moderating the discussion on career navigation is 10x Genomics Senior Manager, Single Cell New Product Development, Meiye Wu, M.A. Pharmacology, Ph.D. Wu invites all students and early career scientists to join her discussion on how to navigate the world of science, technology and industry as a young scientist.

Aerial Precision Phenotyping in Agriculture
Open to view video.
Open to view video. The development of seed and agrichemical products requires a wide range of varieties, environments, and management practices to be evaluated and advanced. Traditionally, much of the field data collected was done through manual data collection methods. More recently the use of remote sensing and image analytics has supplemented, and in some cases replaced manual data collection leading to a greater data volume, better signal to noise data, and improved model predictions to the cheaper and faster advancement of quality agricultural products.
Q&;A on Biotech Start-Ups
Open to view video.
Open to view video. This conversation features a panel of presenters leading a discussion and taking questions on the different ways a biotechnology start-up company can succeed. Hear from Colin Cox, Ph.D. (Seer), Coleman Murray, Ph.D. (Ferrologix) and Tony Jones, Ph.D. (OneNucleus).

Presenting your Science in a Virtual Setting
Open to view video.
Open to view video. Our presenters are both 2020 SLAS Award recipients who have extensive experience with this scenario, and the discussion will be moderated by the 2015 SLAS Innovation Award winner and SLAS Fellow, Jonathan Wingfield with AstraZeneca. We will explore the advantages and disadvantages to presenting your research virtually and there will be plenty of time for open discussion and Q&A.
SLAS Roadblocks to Research: Gripping Challenges
Open to view video.
Open to view video. While robots are the movers that keep automated experiments going 24/7, what about the grippers and gripper fingers that are attached to the robots, grasping precious plates and tubes? While robot arms are often the center of discussion, this Roadblocks to Research event will focus on overcoming the challenges of grasping different plates across a wide range of instrument nests. In the robot industry, it is often said that “A robot is only as good as the gripper attached to it”.
