Abstract

It's time again for this year's Best Places to Work as a Postdoc survey. Click on the green button and follow the link to tell us what you think about your workplace, and put your institution in the running for the top spot. We'll tally up the results, and in March, we'll tell you what postdocs world-wide are saying about their institutions, and how their experience compares to yours. Only you can put your institution in the running, and let administrators know what you value in a postdoc position. Institutions around the world are beginning to see that researchers at the postdoc level have a lot of options. "The image of this poor, hairy postdoc who's going to work like a dog for 18 hours a day is no longer viable," said David Evans, a microbiologist at the University of Alberta, in last year's article. The Scientist's survey gives you the chance to voice your opinion about how the postdoc experience should change. Respond today.
