As someone else commented previously, I believe status will change tomorrow and results will be sent on the last day possible (09)

But at some point you want to have some permanence, get a career progression and improve your salary, etc. The permanent postdoc life would not be fun.mustdoit85 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 9:31 pmI hope all of us will get this fellowship! But I am convinced that this will not solve the main problem...there are too few permanent positions in academia!! Generally, either you get a tenure-track position when you are relatively young or you stay postdoc for some years till you are too old to get a permanent position.. Why do not open constantly permanent positions as postdoc? I guess the research will benefit a lot...

I actually would love to be a permanent postdoc...the salary is not too bad, you can do great research and much less responsibilities then being a Professor...PetetheCat wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 10:02 pmBut at some point you want to have some permanence, get a career progression and improve your salary, etc. The permanent postdoc life would not be fun.mustdoit85 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 9:31 pmI hope all of us will get this fellowship!

I guess it is not fun if you cannot stay anymore in research... as researcher (postdoc) you will keep doing the work you like.. not something obvious if you leave academia

My PhD supervisor (professor, Biomedical engineering) told me once that it took for him 8 months in industry after PhD to realise that it's not a place for him. He returned to academy and start postdoc. For me, it took 8, almost 9 years in industry after my PhD to realise that he was right and I was wrong all the time thinking that i can do research and apply my skills there (in industry).
I will never miss my job, i will always miss my salary
But now, as a postdoc, i feel the most happiest person in the world.

Is this in the case of rejection in the MC fellowship?
