Is it possible to have a career in biotech as a woman that wants to raise kids? I’m in Toronto, Canada. I’m torn between what to do after undergrad. I’m majoring in molecular biology and minoring in applied stats. I could do a masters in molecular biology (2 years) as well, and could aim for an industry job after that. Or I could do a medical laboratory science program (2 years studying + 1 year clinical rotation) and then work in that. Obviously the job security is better in MLS. But I enjoyed my undergraduate thesis and it fulfilled my intellectual desires. I enjoyed doing the bench work, learning the theory, reading the literature, writing, data analysis, etc. and my PI was a delight. But… I want to be able to make enough money and save so that my partner and I can afford to start a family around 28-30. I’d be working from 25-28 and then be out of work for a few years to birth and raise my kids.…
