Nathaniel D. PorterI’m not moving to Alabama (state lawmakers are less than welcoming to my family + I like my corner of Appalachia) but the U of Alabama is hiring a tenure-track <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/dataScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dataScience</a> Librarian starting at $100-120K for assistant professor (and posting salary range in job description). Probably a great job for someone who wants the combo of flexibility and impact of an <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/altAc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#altAc</a> job. <a href="https://careers.ua.edu/jobs/data-science-librarian-525463-alabama-united-states" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://careers.ua.edu/jobs/data-science-librarian-525463-alabama-united-states</a>

Total Internal ReflectionNew posting! There’s no shortage of people and places offering advice to those <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/leavingacademia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#leavingacademia</a> and seeking <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/AltAc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AltAc</a> careers, but here’s some tips based on my own recent experience of the process.👇Hope it helps, and a big thanks too to all who helped me 😊 <a href="https://totalinternalreflectionblog.com/2024/09/22/pathfinding-some-tips-on-finding-science-jobs-outside-academia/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://totalinternalreflectionblog.com/2024/09/22/pathfinding-some-tips-on-finding-science-jobs-outside-academia/</a>

Never Stop ReadingI have let this account languish for months, but I'm back! I have exactly one year left before my graduation with a master's degree, so I'll be posting about my thesis process.

Suzanne she/herHi folks. Looking for some help. I think I'm going to stop applying for academic positions after several years with zero interviews. I'm now trying to figure out what else is out there for me. Would anyone be willing to volunteer a half an hour of their time for an informational interview? Any other resources are appreciated as well, or thoughts on leaving <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/Academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Academia</a>.

I'm David, I'm a mathematician, and I share mathematics things that interest me, often merely adjacent (more or less) to my own expertise. Or sometimes just maths I think is cool. I also sometimes ask questions on maths topics I'm interested in, from a point of view of a non-standard foundational/philosophical approach to what is otherwise common and well-understood material.I'm happy to chat about maths, but I tend not to follow people back because I need to limit the amount of material in my timeline.My own work is <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/altac" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#altac</a> teaching of university mathematics, unpaid research and a bit of industry consulting. I have a blog where I post about research stuff, mostly. Link in bio.

Timo KramerThis week, I'm back in the Pilot Plant to finish experiments we couldn't run 6 weeks ago because of force majeure on the logistics front. I'm very excited that in 2-3 weeks' time, we will have a full dataset on these trials, but it also means the end of the fun bit and the start of A) writing the report and B) the follow-up experiments, including a 2 year shelf life study. It feels like an accomplishment and just a small step in a long process at the same time. <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/AltAc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AltAc</a> <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/FoodSci" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FoodSci</a> <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/ProcessTechnology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProcessTechnology</a>

MeredithI didn't get an academic job (hence my radio silence: I've mostly been moping 😔 and brushing up on my python/R) and am currently looking at a pivot to data science/industry in general. I've got plans for learning the stuff I need to learn and I have a couple of bootcamp-y things lined up so I can get some more industry contacts and a line on the resume that looks vaguely like relevant experience.If anyone has advice about this sort of thing, I'd love to chat!<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/DataScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#DataScience</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/MachineLearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#MachineLearning</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AltAc" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#AltAc</a>
