Midcareer Transitions: How does it work?

LSU Medical Center, Department of Biochemistry –Assistant professor UCLA Medical School, Department of Psychiatry –Assistant professor, Associate professor, Full professor Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Department of Neuroscience –Full staff –Case Western Reserve University, Department of Neuroscience, Full professor 2009-present University of Colorado School of Medicine, Department of Cell and Developmental Biology –Professor and Chair My transitions

Why make a transition? What is important to you –Collaborations –Family issues –Local lifestyle Academic Personal –Local scientific environment –Personal advancement

How to make a transition? What is missing for you? Where is that, and how important is it? What networks can you work? What job ads are worthwhile. –Science/Nature –SFN/Societies What information can you access?

What is important in a transition? Assistant professor –Do you need tenure? –Are you bluffing? –Will you move to associate professor? –Will the new place have tenure? Associate professor –Are you going for full professor? Full professor –Lateral transition? –Chair/Director/Chief?

Opportunities in 2012? Over the next ten years, many faculty will retire, both in research-intensive institutions and in teaching institutions. Funding will likely remain difficult. Biotech/Pharma Administrative –Your institution/associate Dean, etc. –Grant agencies –Science agencies Journalism/Editing

How to prepare READ the advertisement/UNDERSTAND the job. Tailor your CV to that job. –Rework the research pages (keep them short) Make your cover letter short and to the point. –What have you done relevant to this SPECIFIC job?

How to prepare Web search the university/company Web search the department/institute/job Web search/Pubmed search the people that you will meet with. Ask your friends/ colleagues about the issues at that institution/department/ institute/job

What to expect? You were one of hundreds of applicants. You are now one of five interviewees. WHY should they choose you? WHY do you want this job?

What to expect? Know the place/ job Learn who really controls this job. –Will the chair be there in five years? –Will the dean be there in five years? How supportive of basic research/translational research is this university/company? How supportive of basic research in your research area is this research institute/company? How long will this company be committed to research/drug development on disease X? What is the morale within the department? What is the morale at the institution?

Do you want this new job? Was this to get a promotion where you were? You are giving up something. Are the benefits worth it? Will this transition work for your family?

Negotiate what you need Moving gets you new equipment Moving gets you new collaborators Moving gets you new team members Moving means down time for the lab Moving means down time for publications Make sure you have the resources to rebuild and improve your situation
