Are you a scientist working in an academic, hospital, government or private organization? How is it like working in your institution? Take The Scientist's Best Places to Work in Academia survey and let us know.

The Scientist's annual Best Places to Work in Academia survey is back. Consider this peer-review for the workplace. If you think your organization is a great place to teach, research and leaves you personally fulfilled, then let us know. After all, a stellar institutional ranking for your employer reflects positively on you. If you're not satisfied or you have apprehension, then this is your chance to voice your concerns anonymously.

Not only will the survey reflect what's your employer like, but will clue the industry in on what factors you, as a scientist, consider to be important in your workplace. You can participate in the survey until Sept 3, 2007 and you might even win a $250 gift certificate for the effort. The results will be published in The Scientist's November 2007 issue.
