Blog: resources to navigate an academic career
As
part of a workshop retreat of the graduate school of the DPZ in
Goettingen, I gave a presentation on my experiences of navigating life
in academia after the PhD. I am posting the slides here, and will try to convert them into a blogpost.
I have listed additional resources
on my main website (including a link to >200 funders for independent
postdoc positions). Here are some more links to information provided by
others:
Academic career advice:
The Howard Hughes Medical Institute provides a book with helpful tips
