The career path for trainees in biomedical PhD, MD/PhD, and postdoctoral pursuits can be varied—requiring comprehensive data to make sense of the systems of academic research, teaching administration, science writing, and more. This report examines data collection on these tracks to generate insights into research trainee data collection.
