6.08 The Big Postdoc Extravaganza

In our season finale, we sit down with Ailbhe McDaid (University College Cork), Louise Benson-James (Ghent University), and Jay Shelat (UNC Greensboro) to discuss everything postdoc! How do postdocs work? Do we need one to get a job in academia? Are there international standards? What does the day-to-day of a postdoc look like? And what about the application process? Join us as we decode the ins and outs of postdoc programmes as a potential next step after the PhD.
