⚠️For PhDs who are thinking about jumping ship and diving into industry:

Industry isn't necessarily better than academia.

I have straddled both worlds. Here are 5 MYTHS about academia vs. industry:

Thank you HiMedia for joining hands with IITB and Wadhwani Research Centre for Bioengineering, IITB for Bioenginnering research and development.

Yesterday I saw that 1 EU company n univ together hv developed a Placenta on Chip model. The Project cost was 3.9M Pound funded by EU.
I don’t know why our scientists hesitate to demand substantial increase in funding. Why do we still feel that asking for more money is bad?

Thanks Karishma Kaushik, MBBS, MD, PhD, Mom Talk To A Scientist and team for this wonderful effort and giving me this opportunity. The participants asked so many interesting questions and not a single one was irrelevant.

Though Mr Bhandari may not understand his nephew but “burn out” is real & more so if u dnt like ur job. Congrats to the young guy who realized early that this job is not for him evn if he was earning in Cr, and decided to stop and find his call. This gen has this clarity n guts.

It will be a very different experience and challenge altogether. During covid I did a session for kids on vaccine. OMG, they can ask really probing questions!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed.

We are recruiting. An DBT/WT India Alliance funded post-doc positions is immediately available in our group (for details see below). Interested candidates (graduated with Ph.D in last 1 yr) can send their applications by the end of April.

Looking forward to it

Prof. Peter Higgs: scientist from a different era.
“He doubts a similar breakthrough could be achieved in today's academic culture, because of the expectations on academics to collaborate and keep churning out papers. nominated for the Nobel in 1980.”

School friends are always precious

NCCS, Pune, is currently inviting applications for PhD positions. I've a position available focusing on the Microbial Ecology of High Altitude Wetlands.

And then ppl ask why Indian researchers are not doing as well as US/UK/Europe etc.
