| May 2, 2018 at 13:56 | comment | added | skymningen | That still includes them being worn out, covered in the need to apply for a comparatively safe position and thus not able to put as much effort into the project as it needs. To me, this sounds like a plan for a "cheap, short-term Post-doc that you can't count as a post-doc in your CV". Why would they do that? | |

| Apr 30, 2018 at 22:01 | comment | added | PandaPants | @nabla just want to say that it might be even more difficult to get post doc for a 6-month post, since post docs might have families, more personal responsibilities. it's even more difficult to uproot for a very temporary position. | |
| Apr 30, 2018 at 21:06 | comment | added | nabla | Thank you for your comment - I had not considered that the duration itself might be sub-optimal. In my mind, six months would be adequate to take a small, well-posed problem and make it into a research article for the benefit of both of us. Unfortunately my grant provider will not allow me to hire a post doc with this funding, otherwise that would also be a good idea. | |
