Laura E. Mariani

I spent more than a decade in academic developmental neurobiology research and completed a PhD in neuroscience before making a career pivot to executive search consulting. Today, I help clients in health care and scientific research define their strategic plans for the future, then source and recruit the visionary scientists, physician executives, and other leaders who have what it takes to lead them there. I also provide career advice to fellow scientists looking to make transitions from academia to industry as a Senior Advisor for freethephd.com.
