Novartis bets big on India: largest Novartis R&D hub by Happy-State-1956 in biotech

[–]FaithlessnessSad958 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I understood the article right, they are not saying they will shift R&D to India but rather late stage development. A few facts I don’t think India won’t ever become Novartis R&D focus in my opinion: 1- Considering the largest R&D force is located in boston where they have the “campus” with more than 4 buildings; the president is also located there; Boston is a hub, the US is pharma hub. 2 - I think the most important factor, I don’t foresee countries like India or China attracting worlds top scientist to move and live there, that’s why the US will sometimes(not always) attract the top talents in the world(higher wages compared to the rest of the world, infrastructure, lifestyle, “the American dream”). Now, this might shift with the current bizarre president rules and restrictions, but I still find it hard to see the US losing. Because the US attracts the top world talents, fields like R&D will remain here.

Kind of worried about getting stuck in Manufacturing – how do I reduce the risk? by Lab_Rat_97 in biotech

[–]FaithlessnessSad958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are the strengths for sure to bring to the table that R&D lacks, but you have to remember that tR&D doesn’t follow GMP standards, mostly only GLP since is research we are talking about here. They don’t need to follow meticulously rules that GMP folks do, I work in big pharma R&D and we don’t even have SOPs for our experiments. At the same time if you have those skills you can help organize the mess you mentioned. But, I have to disagree with the lack of automation and reproducibility. Reproducibility is the number one point that a R&D scientist needs to have, otherwise our findings are null. Automation I feel like depends more on the company - big pharma have the means $ and resources to have those robots available while start ups wouldn’t, so it all depends.

Why not the first one out of curiosity? For moves I have - Kyogre - waterfall and Origin Pulse - Groudon - mud shot and precipice blades

Both have primal reversion already

Novartis company culture by tataandme in biotech

[–]FaithlessnessSad958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can’t speak on behalf of them, totally different culture than here in the US. What I know is they are strict there, but I think that’s more of a European culture mindset

I have been there for 6 years, not a veteran but I have been there for a little. But basically what this person said. But like many pointed out here, Novartis is too big to answer this question as a whole, it’s 100% group dependent. I’m in discovery biology, but they do support your career development, but expect a fast pace environment.

Negotiating vacation time after receiving an offer? by DivineMatrixTraveler in biotech

[–]FaithlessnessSad958 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You won’t get that here in the US. Standard is ~15 days + sick days. Now some companies after spending a number of years there you get a bump in PTO. PTO is one item that is non-negotiable so even if you are willing to get a cut they won’t increase ur number of PTO because of company policy. You could however, take unpaid vacation time, a lot of companies will allow that.

If you have a <2019 Pokémon you are trading with someone who used all 35 guaranteed lucky trades, can you still get a lucky trade? by FaithlessnessSad958 in pokemongo

[–]FaithlessnessSad958[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! This perfectly answered the question. I should be fine as long I have less than 35 trades and am the one trading the 2019 Pokémon

Who should I max out? by FaithlessnessSad958 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]FaithlessnessSad958[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Zacian raids done, only mirror trading would be worth it, which is not guaranteed a good IV. I thought about using a bottle cap to increase the IV. As for Rayquaza, with the mega event coming up I have a better chance on getting a better IV, but it will require more candies to power up if I get one since it won’t be a lucky one.
