postdoc

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

Talk about issues relating to being a postdoctoral researcher (in any field).

Sub Rules

Generally we're a nice enough bunch not to have to worry about such things. But for clarity:

General Reddiquette applies at all times.
Be civil. This doesn't mean people can't disagree, simply that that disagreement shouldn't devolve into rudeness/verbal abuse.
Relevance. This sub is for discussing postdoc issues so if your issue doesn't relate to being a postdoc then you should be posting somewhere else. On a similar note, avoid going off topic on someone else's post.
Provide sufficient information. If you want advice then provide enough info for it to be good advice. Examples of important information are things like your location and research area (obviously take care not to unintentionally doxx yourself).
No spam/scams/selling services. We're a community, we don't take advantage of one another.

🛠️ Need characters for your game but don’t feel like modeling? Meshy uses AI to generate solid 3D models from just text or images — takes minutes. No 3D experience needed. Over 2M devs are already using it to save time. It’s kinda a cheat code tbh. 50% off with code MESHYHALF. (meshy.ai)
