Hi guys! What would be a fair range of starting compensation for a fresh grad molecular pathologist in industry? Thanks
MDMD or PhD?
All true but reimbursement is still in flux and lagging in the commercial space, and VC money is mostly dried right now as a result of high interest rates and banking issues.guessing much higher given how molecular has been booming. Precision medicine. Molecular genetic companies partnering with big name drug development companies using molecular data. Involvement of AI to use molecular data to help develop drugs.
Just make sure you know your ****. You want to be the go to person. If you are, companies will want to talk to you, if you know what I’m saying lol. If you are just a regular molpath trained guy/gal, be ready to be a cog in the wheel.
I see some of these molecular companies being the future Quests of the future. Big juggernauts have been growing and they will be unstoppable because they have incredible amounts of cash. Business is booming and they are hiring.
Path residencies should go full on mode with molpath training similar to how residencies have with surgpath. We as a field got to capitalize on this. Every graduating trainee has to be well versed with molecular by the time they graduate.
