Ask Me Anything: Medicine, Research & Data Science

I’m an MBBS graduate now working as a Junior Clinical Data Scientist at nference, building oncology real-world evidence programs with pharma companies and US academic medical centers — alongside finishing a BS in Data Science at IIT Madras.

This call is for you if you’re:

∙ A med student or young doctor curious about research or a non-clinical path

∙ Trying to break into clinical data science / RWE without a traditional research background

∙ Juggling multiple tracks (clinical + academic + technical) and need a realistic way to manage it

In 30 minutes, we’ll talk through your specific situation — what’s actually realistic for your timeline, what skills or experience gaps to close first, and a concrete next step you can act on right after the call. No generic advice — just what’s worked (and what hasn’t) for me.

Come with questions. I’ll be direct.
