Our review of non-invasive circulating biomarkers for #EndometrialReceptivity shows modest predictive power and lack of robust validation. Clinically, new #biomarkers are urgently needed for #infertility and #implantation failure.

How about instead of publishing papers the same old boring way, we use AI to generate a David Attenborough documentary where Sir David narrates your data which is presented w/ the finest cinematography & editing. This way every paper would look/sound amazing & easily get accepted

Recently I met a big recruitment manager from a well known corporation.

He told me in a non-appealing tone that:

- They mostly hire fresh BS / MS graduates
- In some cases they hire PhD graduates (but it’s not preferred)
- In almost no cases do they hire people with postdoc experience
- beyond postdoc: forget about getting hired there

They compile short lists using keywords.  You don’t have enough number of skills in your CV…? Bye bye.

If your background is a bit off-topic, you will be ignored. Even if you are a great professional.

Why? They don’t want to wait for you to learn a new skill (even if it takes some weeks). They don’t want to spend resources on educating new hires even if they are outstanding professionals.

At first, I was surprised. The reply sounded arrogant and lacking respect for candidates.

But then I thought that, in academia, most PIs are just like this.

Rarely would they hire you because you’re a great problem solver and can think deeply and analytically.

Normally, they would hire you for a PhD and postdoc position because you have relevant skills and experience. (even for a PhD opening - I heard it so many times!)

My message is:

1. While in academia, invest into your skills! DIVERSIFY your skillset and expertise. Ask your advisor to help you get access to spectrometers, microscopes, chemical synthesis, clean rooms, etc. Join your group members and friends for synchrotron beamtime. Get as much hands-on experience as possible, even if it’s not that deep.

2. DO programming. As much as your free time allows for it. For example, explore how you can process your data using Python. Download open-access datasets, learn how to do machine learning. This can be a huge plus in the future.

Sticking to a very narrow skillset can hugely damage your career opportunities.

Diversity your CV.
