@lteytelman Thanks! #FORSF2015 helped me finally get some of those thoughts out of my head/out in the world.

#FORSF2015 Don Gibson: @phdcomics is my therapy.


Bahar. Science isn’t always run scientifically. No changes to PhD since its conception AGES ago. #FORSF2015


Alberts. Have early career grants that don’t require preliminary data and let you do something new. No rat race with older folks #FORSF2015


Job security for early career researchers is a significant factor in helping research make an impact. blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocial… #FORSF2015


Alberts. How do ensure that staff scientists stay productive? Too little competition? #FORSF2015

Alberts suggests collecting data for NIH: would faculty give postdocs more independence if they came with own research funds? #FORSF2015


Panel. We need have stable staff positions instead of PD. #FORSF2015


Staff scientist need be able to apply for RO1 and similar grants. #FORSF2015


P-value. Let’s found more PD with independent grants. #FORSF2015


P-value. If we lobby NIH now we can enact change right now and not tomorrow. Money can be quickly redistributed to training. #FORSF2015

Alberts would like to put pressure on NIH rather than Congress #FORSF2015


Alberts. PD need a voice. Who could lobby for young researchers in Washington or at NIH? #FORSF2015


Panel: Talk more with your congressmen and women to lobby for science. #FORSF2015


B. Alberts. We need to support younger scientists. Look at early career grants in Europe ala ERC grants. #FORSF2015
