Careers Symposium:
Planning a Successful Postdoctoral Experience:
A Proactive Approach
(Sponsored by APS Career Opportunities
in Physiology Committee)
Organizer:
Deborah A. Scheuer, Ph.D.
A positive and successful postdoctoral experience is an essential
component of the career development path taken by most physiologists.
However, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows often fail to take a
proactive role to obtain necessary skills and experiences required to
prepare them for a successful career in industry, academics, government or
other setting.
