Abstract

Academic and industrial research are different environments in many ways, yet still share many points of similarity. Some people make a permanent leap, while some decide to leap backwards and forwards every few years, or even comfortably straddle both worlds. Will shall be discussing the pros, cons, trials and tribulations in a very candid way, touching on general skills, but also personal experience.
