Seeds of discontent

Told my supervisor today that I'll have to prepare for the possibility that nothing may work out for post-docs. Of course she said if I want one, I'll get one. I do know that's true. I know if all I want was some post-doc, I can find one no prob. But with me, academia is all or nothing. If I expect to get a faculty position at a Canadian top ten university, then I need that top tier Nature/Science/Cell paper. Which then necessitates a post-doc where I can get said big paper. This means I can't just do any post doc.

Go big or go home.

Time to see what's at home.
