Hi Everyone!
I recently found out about quants and was wondering how my background/training will fit in.
I am currently an Applied Math PhD candidate at University of Washington, Seattle, with a BS in bioengineering and MS in pure math. My research is based on stochastic modeling of CANCER BIOLOGY(that's right :D) and the prediction of cancer risk, which clearly does not have much connection to finance. However, I current work part-time at a retirement financial planning company as a computer operator.
Given that I still have a few years before I graduate, can you guys give me some advise as to what I should do in order to increase my chance at becoming a quant?
Thank you all so much!!!
