It sounds like a simple question: how many postdocs are there in the United States?
Maybe you want to know because you ARE a postdoc and you’re thinking about what kind of competition you’ll face for a faculty position.
Maybe you’re a program manager at the NIH, and you’d like to direct extra funding toward STEM training and postdoctoral positions.
Or maybe you’re a university administrator, and you’re wondering how the new labor laws will affect salaries this year.
Well, too bad. No one actually knows how many postdocs there are.
