Dear TreeofLife & helebon,

I am very grateful for ur reply,,,
I wonder does really working as RA could be consider as a research break ,,,
Since I would work in research, I might have some contribution in publications ,
Do u think this can be consider as a research break???
Thanks

madelin

is it a career demolishing step? Is it true, I 'd not be able to return back as a postdoc forever.

I am a women with 2 years experience as postdoc and 2 small children (4, 2 years old).
I am tired of stress & responsibilities, so I am looking for a job where I can positively participate in research with less stress, responsibilities & save time for my children.
Of course salary is far less, but salary here is not an issue.

can u kindly share ur experience with me

Thanks
madelin
