Wanted numbers on Academic burnout and attrition? Here's numbers: In OECD countries, up to >80% (depending on gender, discipline, and country) of people who have published academic papers drop out of science (worse for women); 1/3 after only 5yrs. link.springer.com/article/10.1...#AcademicSky 🧪
I’m a bit bothered by the language of leaving science. What about transition to industry or applied roles? Interesting to see the gender gap in these data. I’m actually surprised to see how gradual many of these curves are. Especially for fields with obvious non-publishing industry paths after PhD.
Weird that no social sciences and humanities were included
