Postdoc Portraits

Are you a postdoctoral researcher with a passion for science and a desire for fame? We want to feature you!

Share

National Postdoc Appreciation Week is in September, but why limit postdoc appreciation to just one week? Postdocs play a vital role in the academic ecosystem, and we’re excited to shine a spotlight on this dedicated and often under-recognized group.

How can you get featured? It’s simple–just fill out this questionnaire to tell us about yourself and your exciting projects! The Scientist’s readers are people like yourselves: scientists. However, as you all work in different fields, please avoid field-specific jargon and technical phrasing in your responses. For example, we want researchers who study cancer to understand a neuroscientist’s work and vice versa. Help us showcase you and your groundbreaking work!
