Hello Guys,
I know that many of you are currently looking for research positions in the USA. While I still believe that the best way to obtain a position is to contact a researcher within your filed of interest directly, I know that it is not so easy sometimes.
So for those who are interested in stem cell reseach here is link I found today: http://stemcell.harvard.edu/jobs/postdoc
Check it out. I thought it might be useful for some.
Good Luck!

There are many, many postdoc positions throughout the US.
Been there, done that.
Some places hire foreigners just to take out their brains and to give them peanuts in return. No, thank you - I've had enough. I am going for a residency and than a clinical career in private practice. I've seen enough of US academia - people going with my data to national and international conferences without my name being on the poster, projects being published without the person with the biggest contribution being a first author or sometimes my name is missing even in the list of authors. How fair is this?
Or as another researcher one time told me: There is no limit to what you can achieve in science as long as you don't care who takes credit for it!
Sweet!

I managed to climb to one of the top positions in research in the hospital, still my boss wanted to have someone else's name before mine for one of my publications, so I took USMLE and am prematched this year.
There is nothing wrong with research, just that I am NOT the type of person!

I guess I have been lucky with my boss, because he is very fair about authorship and participation in conferences, etc... I had a great experience and many publications with my first name, so not all the research programs that bad... it was a good step in the right direction for me, but I am moving on to the clinical career, I like clinics way to much to continue reasearch further...
Just my 2 cents

Beefoxy, Good for You! Consider yourself as lucky as winning the lottery.
Could you please tell me where did you do research. I have a friend, who has his own grant which covers his salary, so he is free to move to a different lab, but he already changed twice and it's the same story - more lab politics than science going on in both labs. He is a super smart, talented, 80 hrs/week hard working person, but at this point feels so disillusioned that is thinking of going back to Europe. Please, pm or tell me the name of your boss. Fair PIs in American academia are a very rare and precious finding.
PS: I personally gave up on my academic scientific ambitions.
