In this episode, we explore the structural problems within academia, particularly the challenges faced by postdocs and the role of principal investigators (PIs). Our discussion highlights the power funders and university management have in shaping academic culture, the flaws in the tenure system, and the need for systemic change. We also emphasize the importance of fostering a better working environment for postdocs and senior staff, who often leave due to dissatisfaction with the current system.
