Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Newly appointed principal research investigators have to recruit, motivate, and lead a research team, manage personnel and institutional responsibilities, and compete for funding, while maintaining the outstanding scientific record that got them their position in the first place. Small wonder, then, that many principal investigators feel illprepared. In this book, a successor to her bestselling manual for new recruits to experimental science, At The Bench, Kathy Barker provides a guide for newly appointed leaders of research teams, and those who aspire to that role. With extensive use of interviews and a text enlivened with quotes and reallife examples, Dr. Barker discusses a wide range of management challenges and the skills that promote success. Her book is a unique and muchneeded contribution to the literature of science.
