To find out more about the transition from graduate school to a postdoctoral position, I interviewed a number of colleagues at Emory University whose research is in the realm of ecology and evolutionary biology. Some interviewees were previously graduate students in PBEE at Emory who continued on to academic postdoctoral positions elsewhere. Others are currently postdocs at Emory who completed their graduate work at other universities. I am also happy to note that nearly all of them are women.
