"Anytime you can join a group of individuals who may have similar work concerns, opportunities, and challenges as well - I think that really enriches the opportunity for you to think outside the box, make friends, and make contacts who may be employed differently but with similar challenges and similar things that they want to accomplish. So, I really encourage people to give that some thought."
Dr. Gail Tomblin Murphy - Vice President of Research, Innovation and Discovery, Nova Scotia Health
