Re: [ccp4bb] Open position - data management in biophysics

It is a long time since I had any practical concerns with this issue, but some funding bodies are more flexible than others. Welcome gives project grants then leaves it up to the recipient to hire and plan. And I guess the big research institutes like the crick and lmb have similar systems. It is o

Re: [ccp4bb] Open position - data management in biophysics

For me as hiring PI, what's repeatedly dismaying is that it's our funders and universities that set the terms, and only with extreme creativity can one shift the dial, and only on indidual recruitments, certainly not the high politics of the system as a whole. No, I don't know what will break

Re: [ccp4bb] Open position - data management in biophysics

Worth discussion although may be impossible to fix. My 2 cents: Standard contracts here seem to be for 1 year, but I've always worked on the assumption that the contract will be renewed unless post-doc and PI have "irreconcilable differences" or there is an unforeseen funding shortfall. Then aga
