The university will open the<\/p>\n<p>Office of Post-Doctoral Education  a new administrative department dedicated<\/p>\n<p>to the development and welfare of post-doctorate researchers.<\/p>\n<p>Rubens Pamies, M.D., UNMC vice chancellor for academic affairs and dean<\/p>\n<p>for graduate studies, said the opening of the new office is the culmination<\/p>\n<p>of the collaborative vision of David Crouse, Ph.D., associate vice chancellor<\/p>\n<p>for academic affairs and associate dean for graduate studies, and Jamboor<\/p>\n<p>K. Vishwanatha, Ph.D., assistant dean for graduate studies and professor<\/p>\n<p>and vice-chairman of UNMC&#8217;s department of biochemistry and molecular biology.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Vishwanatha wrote the original plan for the Office of Post-Doctoral<\/p>\n<p>Education and has been appointed assistant dean and director of the new<\/p>\n<p>office.<\/p>\n<p>They recognized a number of years ago that, while we do an excellent<\/p>\n<p>job of recruiting, supporting and tracking our graduate students, no efforts<\/p>\n<p>are made at an institutional level to recruit, support and track post-doctoral<\/p>\n<p>research associates  the backbone of all of our research projects, Dr.<\/p>\n<p>Pamies said. Just as UNMC strives to move into the upper tiers of the<\/p>\n<p>nations research institutions through our expanding grant volume, we also<\/p>\n<p>need to recognize that those grants cannot be fulfilled without an ever<\/p>\n<p>expanding body of qualified post-doctoral fellows.&nbsp; We now join a<\/p>\n<p>list of only 19 medical institutions that have created a formal program<\/p>\n<p>for the post-doctoral experience.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Crouse explained why, even in a post-doctorate-friendly environment<\/p>\n<p>such as UNMC, the very nature of the post-doctoral work can too easily<\/p>\n<p>lead to feelings of inequality.<\/p>\n<p>Most post-docs are traditionally hired by a principal investigator<\/p>\n<p>to work on a specific funded research project, Dr. Crouse said. Their<\/p>\n<p>support is thus linked to the project that pays their salary and each lab<\/p>\n<p>or department has somewhat different practices regarding their post-docs.<\/p>\n<p>Many post-docs feel significant pressure (real or self-imposed) to work<\/p>\n<p>hard on the project and be as productive as possible in the publication<\/p>\n<p>of papers and other scholarly activities that will establish their credentials<\/p>\n<p>as marketable for faculty or private\/government positions.<\/p>\n<p>Post-docs have reputations for working hard and saying little, as far<\/p>\n<p>as requesting more benefits and attention to their particular needs, because<\/p>\n<p>they are dependent upon strong letters of recommendation from their mentors<\/p>\n<p>for their future careers.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Vishwanatha has personally trained a number of post-doctoral fellows.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He has first-hand experiences with both their achievements and the problems<\/p>\n<p>they face, especially those post-docs who are minorities or come to UNMC<\/p>\n<p>from overseas nations.<\/p>\n<p>For the past 10 years, Dr. Vishwanatha has taken initiatives to develop<\/p>\n<p>interactions with minority institutions and increase the number of minority<\/p>\n<p>students attending UNMC&#8217;s medical and graduate schools. He has brought<\/p>\n<p>underrepresented minority undergraduate students from Texas, Georgia and<\/p>\n<p>South Carolina to the university&#8217;s undergraduate research program  some<\/p>\n<p>of whom have returned to UNMC for their Ph.D. and M.D. programs.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Dr. Vishwanatha was appointed as a member of the American<\/p>\n<p>Association of Medical Colleges GREAT Group (Graduate Research Education<\/p>\n<p>and Training Group) Task Force on Underrepresented Minorities in Biomedical<\/p>\n<p>Sciences. He has given research presentations at different minority institutions<\/p>\n<p>throughout the nation and represented UNMC at numerous national conferences<\/p>\n<p>focusing on developing more minorities in medical research.<\/p>\n<p>In simple terms, the purpose of UNMC&#8217;s Office of Post-Doctoral Education<\/p>\n<p>is to provide post-doctoral research associates here with the skills, knowledge<\/p>\n<p>and experience necessary to pursue and excel in their future career positions,<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Vishwanatha said. But a great number of post-doctoral fellows at UNMC<\/p>\n<p>are from international institutions, and this is their first exposure to<\/p>\n<p>American life. The problems they face are different from American post-docs.<\/p>\n<p>Many of them come with families and face numerous problems in getting their<\/p>\n<p>lives started here.<\/p>\n<p>I have dealt with post-docs who cannot buy a car or get electricity<\/p>\n<p>to their apartment because they do not have established credit. It is very<\/p>\n<p>important for us to provide a forum for the post-docs to come together<\/p>\n<p>and share their cultures and experiences.<\/p>\n<p>When the Office of Post-Doctoral Education opens, Dr. Vishwanatha will<\/p>\n<p>be working closely with his newly appointed program coordinator, Jeanne<\/p>\n<p>Ferbrache, former director of academic records. They will create a Council<\/p>\n<p>of Post-Doctoral Education that will consist of senior and junior faculty<\/p>\n<p>members and senior and junior post-doctoral research associates. This Council<\/p>\n<p>will meet regularly and deal with recruitment and training of post-docs,<\/p>\n<p>organize career development and training workshops, and begin the process<\/p>\n<p>of tracking the progress of the university&#8217;s post-docs.<\/p>\n<p>Ferbrache will help post-docs understand and comply with the network<\/p>\n<p>of policies and procedures that govern their position on campus; centralize<\/p>\n<p>some of the activities of the many independent summer&nbsp; undergraduate<\/p>\n<p>research programs on campus; and create a database that will assist the<\/p>\n<p>tracking and follow- up with both post-docs and undergraduate researchers.<\/p>\n<p>I also hope to provide more personalized services and community contacts<\/p>\n<p>for our post-docs to assist them in getting settled in Omaha, Ferbrache<\/p>\n<p>said. We are even considering a monthly newsletter to keep post-docs informed<\/p>\n<p>about their group and what their peers are doing around the nation.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Pamies noted that economic surveys indicate that for every million<\/p>\n<p>dollars in grant funds, approximately 212 new jobs are created &#8212; a third<\/p>\n<p>of which are probably in support of the grant, which translates into many<\/p>\n<p>more post-docs being needed to fulfill research projects on UNMCs campus<\/p>\n<p>in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p>When a student graduates from med school, he or she now has to learn<\/p>\n<p>the fine art of communicating with patients and the details of their specialty,<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Pamies said.&nbsp; AWe envision the Office of Post-Doctoral Education<\/p>\n<p>as essentially a residency for researchers.<\/p>\n<p>Post-docs in the program will learn the fine art of scientific presentations<\/p>\n<p>and public speaking; portfolio development; biomedical communications such<\/p>\n<p>as electronic blackboard and PowerPoint; mentoring and conflict resolution;<\/p>\n<p>resume writing and interview skills; and how to develop career opportunities<\/p>\n<p>and teaching opportunities, including promotion within UNMC.<\/p>\n<p>By making the post-doctorate fellow feel valued and enfranchised, by<\/p>\n<p>extending better compensation and benefits, and helping them become more<\/p>\n<p>productive and competitive on the job market, UNMC will benefit many times<\/p>\n<p>over, Dr. Pamies said.<\/p>\n<p>We will receive increased productivity, improved graduate student training<\/p>\n<p>from high quality post-docs, enhanced recruiting and retention of high-quality<\/p>\n<p>post-doctoral research associates and an exponential rise in our current<\/p>\n<p>outstanding reputation for post-doctoral training.<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" style=\"display: none;\" title=\"ZZAqB   ybwr vWhWj\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In February 2003, Scientist magazine published survey results that placed the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in the nation&#8217;s top 10 institutions for Best Places to Work for Postdocs.&nbsp; This February, that reputation is about to get even better.
