Newly Erupted: Mid-Career Moves: How to Choose the Path for You
Description
Host Dr. Joel Berg is once again joined by Dr. Clarice Law, this time to discuss her recent move after two decades at one institution and her advice for others determining what their next steps may be. Dr. Law shares the multiple ways her career has evolved over the past three decades. Emphasizing all the opportunities the shift to academia has provided, she discusses the appeal of formally studying new tools and information impacting direct patient care and building up the next generation of pediatric dentists as a mentor. For those clinicians considering a shift to academia – or simply weighing if it may be for you – this is a great listen.
