More than 40 percent of #postdocs leave academia. Those who landed a coveted faculty position were more likely to have had a highly cited paper, changed their research topic between their #PhD and postdoc, or moved abroad after receiving their doctorate. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... @pnas.org

Hello, Bluesky community! 🌐 At the MPDL, we're all about supporting the flow of digital information for researchers across diverse fields.

Here's a little joke for you: Why did the scientist go to the library? To check out some "novel" research! 😄

Cheers to blue skies and endless discoveries! 🌟

Hello Bluesky,
I am excited to finally be part of this community and to discuss bone and bone vasculature, bone regeneration, microscopy and many other exciting scientific topics!
I would like to start by sharing some of my recent research:
