"As a post-doctoral fellow, I can freely research on my favorite topics without any intervention. But it is a temporary position so that I need to continuously find the next position."
"I love the ability to be creative and to develop my ideas. I do not like the fact that unfortunately sometimes postdocs are not paid as much as they deserve."
"Love to publish scientific research publications but hate when you want to make novel drugs and making them commercialized."
"I hate the fact that I have the freedom to decide on when to work and how to conduct my research. I have weekly meetings with my supervisor to report my progress. During my time as a post doctoral fellow at the University of Waterloo, I have already published a brief book with Springer Inc. The only fact I don't like about is the lack of practical research we conduct in collaboration with the industry. I believe that this problem is already identified, and will be rectified in the future,"
"Love atmosphere.Not satisfied with pay."
"The other postdocs and some of the permanent staff are awesome."
"I love being challenged every day and love producing results that will have value for decades to come and will lay the foundation of what is produced afterwards."
"I love clinical investigation which gets you deep into the understanding of disease mechanism as they occur."
"I loved the freedom of the position. I think you have to be lucky with your mentor choice."
"I enjoy the freedom to choose my own projects. However, another postdoc I know had a boss who engaged in a lot of micro-managing."
