This report was published thanks to the efforts of @harvardmpa1, BPDA President @yalcinessra, @mayank_mchugh, and many more. Postdocs deserve a competitive wage if institutes hope to retain them and foster their success in academia. Help us spread the word!
After a brief hiatus, the Boston Postdoctoral Association (BPDA) is ramping back up in 2026! We look forward to creating opportunities for Boston-area postdocs to connect.

We are proud to see the problematic publication structure that the system imposes on us can be challenged. Putting the publishers who dominate the sector under scrutiny and holding them accountable for limiting the dissemination of science is just a start

"The greatest percent increase in history" doesn't justify the low pay. The NRSA salary scale for FY 2024 is released. A trajectory to reach $70k minimum in four years, with no COL adjustment -- NIH still underappreciates its postdocs.
