Jobs in research?

<p>Does anyone have any experience/knowledge about jobs in biomedical research? I would love working in a lab but I'm not sure what the job outlook for that is. Also, does one need a Phd to have a secure job in a lab doing research or is a bachelors/masters enough? What is the pay normally like? Any type of information would be great!</p>

<p>I would like to know more about this too.</p>

<p>A former coworker’s wife got her Phd from Columbia in 2008 and didn’t find a lot of lab prospects in the Boston area. I think that we’re in a particularly tough time in the economic cycle.</p>
