Is academia hostile to families?
“As is the case for many parents in academia, parental leave has played a major part in the trajectories of our lives and scientific careers”. In contrast to Canada, “the United States has no federally mandated paid parental leave.”
Early career academics are often poorly paid and are required to relocate frequently, causing obvious major challenges for young families.
