Arjun Bharioke's lab is hiring, in South Carolina:
"Understanding and controlling circuit function through plasticity"
To remark that you can get a tenure-track faculty position without any first-author publications during PhD or postdoc. The median is 5.
"The percentage of the cohort who had first-author CSN publications before obtaining their tenure-track faculty position."
* 203 out of 344 did not have any Nature/Cell/Science paper.
* 75 had one.
* 54 had two.
* 13 had 3 to 5.
"we examined the funding and publication history of a cohort of investigators who began their first academic faculty position between 2009 and 2019, and we interviewed several senior academic leaders with extensive experience in hiring new faculty. Our data show that <11% of newly hired faculty had a K99/R00 award and that neither prior funding nor papers in prestigious journals were necessary to obtain a tenure-track faculty position."
"Interviews with academic leaders almost uniformly referred to critically important factors that were considered to be more important in the hiring process than funding or publishing in high-profile journals."
