Postdocs

I'm interviewing tomorrow morning, for a post-doctoral research associate (postdoc to you & me). I have a year of grant-funded work to complete, and I'm more than eager to get it done so I can publish a ton of data sat on my computers. So I get to employ someone.

This has been much delayed by beaurocracy, but this might turn out to be provident as I'm trying to get myself back in the lab to run some other experiments, so I'll have time to introduce, supervise, teach & train. Hopefully the successful candidate will have a fair bit to teach me too.

Following this come responsibilities: getting continued funding to keep them employed, getting them trained up in new lab techniques to keep their CVs improving, making sure they present their work to useful conferences & published in decent journals, etc.

We've done most of the teaching, now on to the research.
