SCI FI

SCI FI is a unique program that aims to foster innovation and entrepreneurship in the field of health and life sciences. It is a six-month journey that involves online and offline learning, mentoring, networking, and pitching. Tomáš Pavlů was one of the lucky participants who completed the full 2023 SCI FI program with an amazing presentation. In this article, Tomáš will share his feelings, expectations, challenges, and outcomes of this incredible experience.

The SCI FI program, or From Scientists to Innovators for Industry, is a unique course that helps young scientists transition from academic research to working in the pharma and medtech industries.
