For the instrument facility managers, who got their Ph.D's from the university, 45-50k is about right. From what I could tell, they worked 9-5 and chose to teach some on the side as well. The lab lieutenant is a different beast. In addition to training a group of a dozen students (no post-docs), you're also editing manuscripts before the PI will even look at them, as well as helping the PI write grants and compile slides for presentations. My guess is 60hr/wk in the lab, and who knows how much the PI pesters you outside of those hours. Perhaps it's not surprising that it required a salary of $100k to get the lab lieutenant to agree to that deal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-16387497010428604352012-04-10T11:37:23.113-04:002012-04-10T11:37:23.113-04:00Pays $hit most likely. 45-50 at best?Pays $hit most likely. 45-50 at best?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-38248652317226128202012-04-10T11:29:26.283-04:002012-04-10T11:29:26.283-04:00Concerning the associate research scientist positi...Concerning the associate research scientist position - I have no knowledge of Columbia's titling. But, where I did my Ph.D (big public midwest school), this title was held by the advisor's "lab lieutenant". Basically, a staff research scientist associated with a particular research group, as opposed to being director or manager of a common facility (NMR lab, MS lab, proteomics, crystallography, or what-have-you).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
