postdoc

To earn exactly the same sum as a postdoc is just a crazy thing, and I'm glad I left to do my postdoc in the US.

The PhD student is locked into finishing her degree at the least, possibly aiming for a postdoc.

At the time, my postdoc funding was running out and my sponsor suggested working at a startup in Cambridge.

Is it more than a postdoc, can it lead a tenure track professor position?

The number of strings postdoc has already slowed to a trickle.

I do have a PhD in biophysics/chemistry/biology and four years of postdoc experience.

At the end of my postdoc I had two interviews, one at at an ivy and the other at a very good state research university.

When I was writing my honor's thesis in college, a postdoc invited me to her apartment to stay overnight and help me finish it in time.

This will vary by field and how expensive your needs are--but part of choosing an adviser (especially at the postdoc level) is choosing one that will allow you to explore your own ideas.

The semantic web "community" is about 75% made up of invalid URLs because all these academic geniuses are too busy theorizing about ontologies to realize that all the links into their department webpage are going to stop working when their one-year postdoc expires.
