I'm seeking to build my network in cybersecurity further. What are some optimal ways to go about accomplishing this?

I recently joined ISACA as a student member and attended my first chapter meeting. I had some great conversations, but didn't necessarily walk away with any new connections. I've attended several virtual webinars over the past couple of months as well, and gained new LinkedIn connections, but nothing in-depth as of yet.

How can I find connections, resources, and experiences to become a biopharmaceutical scientist in research and development?

I have been working to find a career that I truly enjoy and recently I have been increasingly interested in pursuing a career as a biopharmaceutical research and development scientist (with an interdisciplinary background in nanotechnology), but I understand that I will need to gain experience in this field to really comprehend what I will be working with. So I need help finding connections within academic institutions and professionals in this field that will help me experience my potential future career. Any type of help is appreciated! I wish to connect with professionals and learn as much as I can, working hard to gain the experience I need for this career. (Is it possible as a teenager?)
