This is an excellent video I am presently pursuing a postdoc in the US and my contract for the visa renewal is going to end in 4 months and I don't want to continue in the same lab there are many reasons for slow publication, PI is toxic in short things aren't working fine shall I try another lab and will it be a negative impression for the lab that I am applying. Also I moved before from one lab (out of my field) to this lab, there I was for a year

How to convince the other PI why you wanna switch ?? Should you tell directly? Or make some different excuses that will not harm PI's image and your as well?? Im a PhD fellow, been 3 months only and my PI says on the result of my first experiment .. what are these image? Are these worth to publish?? Like its a new field for me and i am doing my best and i am getting result in my learning experiment...but he only finds the wrongs in it why it is over developed, why there is no cells , there is no progress and all...even though i can see progress in my work... How should i deal with it...

Yes. It happened to me and my wife during my PhD. Now I had finished my PhD at home (I had to re start) and I can’t find jobs here so I’m thinking going overseas again for a postdoctoral position … this is crazy I don’t know what to do.

Thank you so much. Much needed this today. You mentioned the publication, should it be necessarily 1st author paper??. It's 7 months after I joined, and I got a paper as 3rd author, is it okay???.

Remember that doesn't apply to most of PhDs. He is talking about ideal world. Most PhDs get no help whatsoever.

Everyone responded to your emails? For me it has been 95% radio silence, maybe 5% "no" responses, none interested. Computational biology, 12 decent publications, top 100 PhD, but nothing yet for 8 months.

Do: 1. Ask a lot of questions 2. Meet new people outside your lab, broaden horizon 3. Shadow 4.Read a lot 5. Find extra 1 to 1 time with PI.

Funny. I do 2 usually but as an email not as a covletter. Still got nothing. A girl had a copycat of my cv just fewer qualifications and got the position as internal applicant and younger so less experience too. I didn't understand it. Some just hire younger for the sake of hiring. I have worked with great younger people or older so I don't get it and also bad of either. I don't think age determines how good you will be. Some are just looking to date 😂 in that case I'm glad I didn't get hired.

Industry is better for the income for sure. The only problem is that many of the inductrinated toxic people from academia get into industry and start creating and spreading toxic culture.

I learned about many things in my PhD program but for the most part what I got out of the program was not the biomedical sciences PhD level research education that I was looking for. I learned mostly about the nature of people ( good and bad). I learned about toxic cultures, politics, inductrination, manipulation, exploitation, racisim, hate, scare tactics, fraud. I learned that for some reason PhDs and MD's within an institute don't get along and don't collaborate. I learned that in academia they are focused on grants, power and politics and not education of students in the field of study that the students joined the program to gain expertese in. I also learned that most students who join PhD programs are very trusting and get manipulated easily by evil faculty and PI's, because those students dont have the basic scientific mindset to question things, investigate things and analyze things to determine if what they are being told is true or not. I learned that although academia is mostly super toxic, there are still some good people sprinkled among the many evil people. I left academia and dropped out of my PhD because of all the overwhelming negative things that I experienced in the program, but the experience did open my eyes, and it was a learning experience.
