NIH Seeks Your Input on Postdoc Challenges
A new Advisory Committee to the NIH Director Working Group was recently established to address growing concerns about the postdoctoral training system and recruiting qualified postdoc candidates in the future.
The goal of this working group is to explore the status of the postdoctoral training system, identify and understand critical factors and issues relating to this perceived decline in the number of postdocs in academia, and provide recommendations to address those factors.
