  • The length of a postdoctoral research position can vary depending on a variety of factors, such as the field of research, the specific project or experiments involved, the funding available, career and the individual goals of the postdoc researcher.
    Typically, a postdoctoral research position should lasts between one and three years. But, it lasts for 5-10, even 15 years in some cases. It may be possible to extend the position for additional years (depending upon funding) to complete the task, but it should be planned very carefully keeping career goal in mind. Postdoctoral research fellow who don’t achieve academic positions (asst. prof.) after 5-10 years, most of the time they end up start in industry from scratch or lower ladder.
    It's also worth noting that postdoctoral research positions are intended to be temporary training period, transitional positions that help researchers gain additional skills and experience before transitioning to a permanent research or academic position. However, the length of time spent in a postdoc position can vary depending on the individual's career goals and circumstances.
    There are several articles published on Nature.com and other website that highlight the challenges and problems associated with postdoctoral research. Here are a few examples:
    1. "The PhD Factory"
    www.nature.com/articles/472276a
    2. "Postdocs under pressure: overworked and undervalued"
    www.nature.com/articles/d4158...
    3. "The perils of postdoc'ing" (Nature, 2018): This article examines the negative effects of long-term postdoctoral positions on mental health and career prospects.
    media.nature.com/original/mag...
    4. Stop exploitation of foreign postdocs in the United States
    www.nature.com/articles/d4158...
    5. There is life after academia: Nature volume 513, page5 (2014): With high numbers of postdocs emerging from universities, prospective PhD students must be prepared for the fact that they will probably not end up with a career in research.
    www.nature.com/articles/513005a
    6. The Postdoctoral Experience Revisited.
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NB...

    7. The evolving postdoctoral experience
    www.science.org/content/artic...
    8. The price of doing a postdoc: For the overwhelming majority of Ph.D. holders who do not become tenured professors, spending time as a postdoc comes at a hefty price.
    www.science.org/content/artic...
    9. Huge variations in US postdoc salaries point to undervalued workforce:

    • What is good time 1-3 years?
    Many countries have time limit on pursuing PhD degree and many not
    Why time is getting more and more in postdoc.
    • Time limit on Postdoc research is good or bad?
    Is Universities taking any measure to enhance quality and life in postdoc research?
    Will time limit on Postdoc will cause joblessness in PhD, true or false?
    Does NIH have guidelines or support for postdoc? Rules and reality in research grant applications
    • Does 3 Years of Postdoc research enough to become a PI?
    PhD time
    Postdoc time skills
    Bottle neck situation
    • Plan your Postdoc Career Wisely-
    Keep focus on time and results.
    Talk to professors about short term plans, long term plans and personal and professional goals
    Plan 7 Design the Experiments, Idea, and project work to save time.
    Always keep 1-on-1 with Postdoc-Mentor & Choose mentor out of lab as well.
    • Decide Long term plans early.
    Career plans-Academia vs Industry vs non-science jobs
    Limit your postdoc time to certain years.
    Decide early what is best for you Academic or Industry.
    • Immigrants related Issue in Postdoc Research
    -VISA issues
    -Getting Job in Home Country or Stay abroad
    -Is Green Card related to postdoc time?
    • Moving to Industry at early vs late after Postdoc
    Academic and industry Skills are totally different.
    Bitter but true- No wants to hire PhD with longer postdoc.
    Early entry in industry is better than later.
    Financially you gain more in industry but less stability compare to academic.

    The last part was so aptly conveyed -- sth must be wrong with the proper training/expectations from institutes to ensure that u do not have to gain the experience from long term postdoc.

    Very Nice and informative video Santosh Bhai.... I have a question regarding my J1 wavier rule. Actually my Visa stamp in the passport shows that "Section 213(E) does not apply (INDIA)" but my DS 2019 shows that the 2 year home rule is valid. So what should I consider to be true for my case. I have contacted the ISSC office and they say that you have to confirm from the Home Land Security office. Kindly help me in this regard if you know better. Thanks.

    Hi, As an individual with a BSc in biotechnology and an MSc in environmental science, I have worked as an environmental consultant for two years. However, I am now considering a career change and would like to work in biotechnology. If I pursue a second master's degree and Ph.D in biotechnology, how would the timeline work if I aim to join the industry afterward? Additionally, given the competition from younger professionals, will I still be eligible to work in the industry? I'm now 26. Is my age a potential obstacle to securing a job in industry after completing my PhD, given that I will be between 33 and 35 years old upon completion?
