Amy is a Research Advisor for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation
(OCRF) and an Honorary Research Associate at the Hudson Institute of
Medical Research in Melbourne, Australia. She was previously a
postdoctoral researcher at the Hudson Institute focusing on ovarian
leader cells and how they drive metastasis and chemoresistance. This
article explores her journey from ovarian cancer researcher to a
research advisory role in the not-for-profit sector. Driven by a deep
love for science and a desire to make an impact, she navigated the
challenges of the research environment and the uncertainties of career
transition. Along the way, Amy discovered the importance of transferable
skills, mentorship, and creativity, which have all played crucial roles
in shaping her career. With a future full of possibilities, Amy’s
commitment to making a difference continues to inspire and guide her.16 Sep 2024Submitted to Immunology & Cell Biology 18 Sep 2024Submission Checks Completed
