\"Naturejobs-podcast\"<\/a>A wide range of initiatives exist to help early career researchers achieve their goals, but there are practical challenges and difficult decisions to make along the way.<\/h2>\n

In this podcast we hear from Burcu Anil Kirmizitas<\/a>, who describes the struggle to find affordable housing for her and her family in three of the world’s most expensive cities. We also hear from\u00a0Ibukun Akinrinade<\/a>, a neuroscience PhD student at the\u00a0Gulbenkian Institute of Science<\/a>\u00a0in Oerias, Portugal. Ibukun needed to access training that was not available in her home country of Nigeria and had to leave her husband and young son behind.\u00a0This month’s career expert is\u00a0 James Gould, Director for the Office for Postdoctoral Fellows<\/a>\u00a0at Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Dental Medicine. James answers a question about transferable skills from\u00a0Simon Peyda<\/a>, a research assistant at the Karolinska Institutet<\/a>, Sweden.
