Curious about making the leap into independent consulting? Don't miss this Ask Me Anything (AMA) session with Liyang Diao and Michael Seiler, two industry veterans and the co-founders of Sprout Informatics, a newly formed data science consultancy.
Two months ago, we transitioned from leading Data Science teams in biotech to launching our own venture. We were armed only with an idea of what we wanted to do, and the rest has been an entrepreneurial adventure: “building the plane as you fly it” in true biotech fashion.
Join us in the early stages of our journey into entrepreneurship, where we’ll share our experience in starting a specialized data science and bioinformatics consultancy.
Come on, ask us anything (answers not guaranteed)!
