Hi,
I was wondering if people could share with me their experiences of the workload associated with postdoc positions in the states. I am thinking of applying for some positions but i am put off by what i have previously heard - that as a postdoc you can end up doing the majority of the work in your research group, working very long hours and often on weekends and therefore you essentially have no life. Is this generally true or have i got it wrong?
let me know your thoughts,
cheers,
Dan
