Dear Lab P.I.s, I have had 0 good publications so far. But 2-3 good poster presentations. I hold some proficiency in data analysis and have a decent research acumen. Give prospective candidates like us a chance for an interview. Thank you.

as I am about to finish my masters, I am having second thoughts about pursuing a career in academia. The result one gets by putting in back-breaking hard work is almost nil. and It takes pride in being that way.

I absolutely dislike being put in a box. As a budding social-experimental psychologist, I don't wanna be told that I can't use an EEG/fNIRS on the field because that is not my area or something. Curiosity should matter the most. Questions should guide the most. Periodt.

If you studied Psychology at university, did you give much thought to what comes after when you made that choice: eg the need for professional postgraduate training, the availability of jobs, the competitiveness? Could courses do more to reflect the realities / prepare graduates?
