This is happening today! If you are postdoc AND in NYC (even if you are from non-NYC institutions), you should join. It's always a good time at NYC postdoc night science.

I've always been surrounded by many great people and professors, but my family, especially my mom who was a teacher, was the person who encouraged me to study and pushed me to continue. When we're young, we don't understand why our parents bug us so much with school and doing homework, but it's a blessing to have that support at home.

It’s a lonely job, leading a research group (professor, principal investigator, group leader – whatever you call it). You talk all day with everyone, but you’re mostly alone with the doubts and risks of the biggest decisions.
Does it have to be though??

What is a discovery? Why are discoveries so difficult to make? How does Night Science & Day Science capture the process of discovery? What are a few Night Science tools? Can we change the culture of science?

It's not exactly the same, but I try to draw parallels between computer and human languages. There are decent AI translators out there, but it's hard to connect with people when I can't actually speak the language. I think there is something equivalent in coding. I acknowledge the sense of loss 😞

Point of no returns: researchers are crossing a threshold in the fight for funding With so little money to go round, the costs of competing for grants can exceed what the grants are worth. When that happens, nobody wins.

Now the conventional wisdom is that we all win by not applying at all, right? πŸ™‚πŸ™ƒπŸ«
