This is a GREAT listen for re: GCs doing a PhD. Great perspectives from some fantastic GC-researchers. One thing though is that they are all tenure-track academics. That is one option for a GC after a PhD, but it isn't the only option. 1/n #GCchat https://twitter.com/Naomi_CGC/status/1278044527329251331
A GC with a PhD can work in a range of settings, doing a variety of things. Tenure-track professorship is absolutely the right call for some, but not for everyone. A PhD can still be useful even if you want to pursue a different path (work in industry doing research, work in 2/n
an academic clinical center seeing patients & contributing to team-based research etc). I am grateful that my PhD advisors have been very supportive in mentoring me on how to find the right path as a GC-scientist wants to do research, but doesn't want to be a PI/tenured prof 3/3
