Last year, The Scientist opened up its annual salary survey for the first time to life scientists working outside of the U.S., revealing considerable differences in income between different regions of the world. Across academia, industry, and government, US researchers reported earning an average of nearly $96,000 per year, while European scientists reported an average of just $66,700, and researchers in India just $11,200. What will this year’s results tell us? In November, we’ll break the data down by life science specializations, geographic location, degree, job title, and more.
