Every science-based company has a set of values or a mission statement. Many talk about respecting employees and valuing innovation—two key criteria in Science’s Top Employers Survey. But the top companies in Science’s survey ensure that these abstract principles are embodied in concrete ways.

Since 1998, the best career advice for industry-bound scientists.

Speed networking can be an effective way to promote new research collaborations.

There are no fail-safe recipes for success, but some basic, tried-and-true principles can be counted on.

This guide, adapted from AAMC, provides answers to frequently asked questions about M.D.-Ph.D. programs.

“The biomedical initiative, Yeo explains, is meant to combine these elements into “an integrated, goal-oriented approach to develop human, intellectual, and industrial capital” in the life sciences”

Ensuring a successful postdoctoral appointment and using the experience to launch a solid career require careful preparation. Scientists who responded to this year's postdoctoral survey, sponsored by
Science Careers, outline strategies based on their personal histories.

With major boosts in science funding, Europe hopes to become a hot spot of innovative science and technology.

The UK and Ireland are both reaching for the benefits of a knowledge economy. The UK leads Europe’s biotechnology scene, and Ireland’s rapid economic trajectory through the 1990s has radically altered the research landscape thanks to large injections of cash. International companies’ search for research talent has intensified. Many have set up operations in the UK and Ireland where they tap into expertise from world-class universities, as well as opening their arms to researchers moving on from the competitive academic sector.
