An editorial in Nature by Kendal Powell dwells on the uncertainties of career prospects by post-doctoral fellows, in the US and elsewhere

The International Cancer Research Fellowships (iCARE) program, a funding scheme intended to promote the mobility of experienced researchers to and from Italy. This program is open to highly qualified post-doctoral fellows or equivalent who wish to broaden their experience in oncologic research, and consists of three different types of fellowships, each for a duration of two years

The course will introduce PhD scientists to the competencies they need to thrive in industry and will expose them to the culture and infrastructure of life sciences companies through MBA- style case-based teaching, professional development workshops, and a team-based project

Successful applicant will be involved in the analysis and integration of high-throughput transcriptomic and epigenomic datasets and will work in tight contact with biologists in order to unravel new pathways involved in immune-related pathology such as autoimmunity and immunodeficiency.

In a short commentary in Nature Genetics the editors discuss how often submitted papers are flawed by an excess of claims, as if the authors wished to "hypnotize" readers with their beliefs. But ow often are such claims substantiated by experimental evidence?
