Compelling Op-Ed piece by Kafui Dzirasa, MD PhD on the disturbing brain-drain from academic science that is weakening US competitiveness in science, and how NIH can stem the outflowing tide by improving postdoc salary and benefits 1/2 insidehighered.com/opinion/views/…

"The NIH could increase the starting salary to $70,000 for the more than 4,000 postdoctoral researchers .... just a tiny fraction (0.13 percent) of the NIH’s annual $45 billion budget. But it could make a massive difference in the lives of early-career scientists." 2/2

We want to commend UIowa Research for promoting postdoc visibility and for acknowledging postdocs as a unique group of research professionals on campus! More info on nominations: research.uiowa.edu/nominate-stude…
