I recently interviewed Sofya Lebedeva (currently pursuing a PhD in Clinical Medicine at Oxford University & co-founder of ARMOR - Alliance for Reducing Microbial Resistance).
We discussed:
▹ How she has forged a career path in biosecurity
▹ Skills and mindsets essential for success
▹ Her thoughts on PhDs and entrepreneurship
... and more!
This was such an energising, inspiring conversation! I'd love to conduct more career interviews with ambitious, mission-driven women working on mitigating risks from emerging technologies (like AI, biotech, WMDs) — so if you would like to be interviewed or have ideas for who I should talk to next, please let me know! 🙏
