She was an exceptional mentor to those who worked with or around her, whether an undergraduate, postgraduate student, technician, postdoctoral research assistant, sabbatical visitor or academic colleague.
"One well-placed student, technician or senior scientist — no cost, with the salary being provided courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer — and no risk, no difficulty," Mr. Ebright said.
We illustrate this in Table 1 by comparing CUREs with research internships, in which undergraduates work one-on-one with a mentor, either a graduate student, technician, postdoctoral researcher, or faculty member.
Under the program, each school recruits and forms its own squad, made up of student technicians who volunteer their time.
Often those treatments were provided by people who were not licensed as therapists, including interns, students, technicians and sports trainers, the suit said.
The Idea Within NCMLS, the JOM, which focuses on would-be Ph.D. students, technicians, and postdocs, has been the main job-vacancy marketplace for 3 years.
You'll need to do some research to find out how much these things cost: Read catalogs, call vendors, and consult experienced academic scientists about the cost of hiring graduate students, technicians, and postdocs.
And although some academic researchers continue to put in time at the bench, even outside of sabbaticals, most spend their lab time directing the work of students, technicians, and postdocs.
And like any business, we have the constant challenge of recruiting and funding top-notch employees (i.e., students, technicians, and postdocs) while providing them with opportunities to further develop their capabilities.
Individual PI's will almost always view their funding as "personal" money to be spent at their discretion, so students, technicians, and postdocs with disabilities are not cost-effective, and are therefore to be avoided.
The problem has only one solution, and it's the one every new PI must choose: Bring in graduate students, technicians, and postdocs, in a proportion that suits you and your research, and trust them to get the lab work done.
