Other random advice

You can find a LOT of advice for all steps of your academic career on the internet. Forums and blogs are full of it. A lot of it is true - but a lot of it is *******, as well. However, have a good read around. The career sections of the major journals (e.g. nature   ) are useful, too. Talk to other PostDocs / PhD students / Masters students to get an impression how life in other labs is like. Feel free to talk to me about what you read or heard to get my input, as well.

We also have some nice books about life in academia in our library.

In this section I have compiled some thoughts from others that think are an interesting read. This is not a comprehensive list, and I do NOT always agree with the thoughts expressed in the following documents.
