Institutional funding and research support is critical to academics during this time of continued budgetary belt-tightening across government agencies.
 

Our final survey of the life-science industry workplace highlights the companies—small and large, domestic and international—that are making their researchers feel valued and at home.

Take a closer look at some of the statistics generated by The Scientist's Best Place to Work Industry 2013 survey.

See the data from our 2013 survey of postdocs.

This year’s survey concludes more than a decade of highlighting the institutions that treat postdoctoral researchers as valued members of the scientific community.

Only two weeks left to participate in The Scientist’s 2013 survey for best place to work in the life sciences.

Topping this year’s survey of academic researchers is the J. David Gladstone Institutes, a San Francisco-based nonprofit biomedical research organization with a focus on cardiovascular disease, virology and immunology, and neurodegenerative disorders

On the 10th anniversary of The Scientist’s survey of life science academics, institutions are contending with tighter budgets and larger administrative staffs, while working to sustain and inspire their researchers.

Whether working for a pharmaceutical giant or a biotech start-up with a unique vision, researchers who responded to this year’s Best Places to Work in Industry survey are translating society’s most pressing scientific needs into a new generation of drugs, research tools, and cutting-edge innovations.

Much has changed in the 10 years since our first survey of industry researchers. Large companies are now looking to small, nimble ones for services as well as innovation.

Much has changed in the last 10 years for postdocs, who are staying in their positions longer than ever before—and coming out with more to show for it.

Postdocs at this year’s top-ranked institutions get to tackle human health and disease from every angle. 

The Scientist's 2012 Best Places to Work surveys have closed.

Thank you for completing this year's Best Places to Work Survey. 

Whether it’s attending a Scottish dance party or asking physics buffs to custom build your tools, researchers at this year’s top institutions are getting creative at work.

Meet some of the finalists of this year's Best Places to Work in Academia survey. 

Setting up your own scientific laboratory is no easy task, but this year’s respondents are using their postdoc experiences to prepare for the challenge.
