Many companies use freelancers to scale their business. So, why not scale your research with freelancing scientists? You may know the situation: you are sitting on a bunch of data and unfinished projects.

If you only had the time to wrap them up in a paper and finally publish it. Yet, the time never comes. There are a thousand other things in your position that are more important to act upon at this moment. Likewise, you can’t simply give the data to a student because they usually lack the skills to perform. Instead, they need your advice to reach proficiency which may require a higher time-investment from your end than simply doing it yourself. Time is the exact reason why you’re not doing it yourself in the first place. The problem continues.

An experienced person could do the job without much of a time investment from your end. Yet, there comes another problem. Money. You can’t afford a full-year postdoc position. Not even six months. However, you may have some leftover money from grant projects at their final stage that needs to be spent before they expire. Maybe because the PostDoc hired on the project left a few months before the grant finished or otherwise.

You think you can’t “hire” a qualified PostDoc for only a few months. Well, here’s the solution to it all. You can! PostDoc on Demand just like me use limited resources available and minimize the time you spend advising a PhD student. By having a PostDoc on Demand on a simple contract or invoice basis.
