Nature’s Postdoc Survey. By Petar Milovanovic
 
During the past several months, Nature devoted a series of articles to postdocs, with an emphasis on how they handle the current situation and how they perceive their future in light of COVID-19 crisis. These articles reported the results of Nature‘s inaugural survey of post-doctoral researchers, which attracted more than 7,600 respondents from 93 countries all over the world and inquired about the impacts of COVID-19 on postdocs. The survey was offered in English, Chinese, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. If you are interested, you can find the anonymised raw data, cleaned data analysis, and the questionnaire here.
The first article presented the discussion on how COVID-19 has affected postdocs and their views of the future. It is also very interesting to read about regional differences but also similarities between postdocs’ concerns and challenges in the second article in the series that offered an overview of their circumstances worldwide. The third article explored postdocs’ quality of life, including mental health and experiences of discrimination and harassment. The fourth article examined respondents’ sense of their career prospects.
