More than 40 percent of #postdocs leave academia. Those who landed a coveted faculty position were more likely to have had a highly cited paper, changed their research topic between their #PhD and postdoc, or moved abroad after receiving their doctorate. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Just showed the documentary film version of Oreskes' book to one of my classes. It continues to serve as one of the most important socio-political analyses of the Century, explaining how we got to where we are today (including how we ended up with a climate denier US President).
