We all know that a Post-Doc is a person who, after finishing his/her PhD, works for one or two years as a scientist in a scientific research group. Beyond this simple definition, I would like to know what you think about Post-Doc roles inside a laboratory and a group.



What is actually a Postdoc fellow?

What is a Postdoctoral fellow supposed to do?


What do you expect from a Postdoctoral fellow?
