Would love to know more about visa and residencies for postdocs in USA.

Hey. Could you talk more about the aging research in the company? What's going on in this field? How to lead a team in the company? Thanks!

[@gradschooladvice9537]

Thanks for these suggestions. We can cover some about leading a team. For aging research, there unfortunately isn’t a lot in industry in this regard. “Aging” isn’t an FDA target and so it becomes hard to translate aging research into a biotech company.

I am an Indian national. Is it very difficult to get a postdoc position without any fellowship, sponsored through various foundations or agencies for an international scholar? Because when I mail to professors for hosting, like for Marie Curie or Humboldt fellowships, they agree but when I write asking about any vacant position for postdoc, I usually don't get any response or it's mostly a negative one.

In Europe?

[@soni4331]

@@gradschooladvice9537 Not only in Europe only, I was asking in general actually, like in US, Australia or Canada etc.

[@gradschooladvice9537]

Some places may not be able to sponsor visa. That could be a big part.

Hey! I love your channel and I think it's very useful for us coming from abroad. That's why I watch every video. Abou the content, maybe a step by step with links about the first things you must do arriving US. Like how to get a bank account, how to get social security number and driver's license, and so. Like a survival guide for those who come abroad. Thanks for your videos!
