With careful planning, new faculty hires can stretch their start-up funds to launch successful research programmes.
When biologist Emily Standen was negotiating her start-up package for a post at the University of Ottawa in Canada, she retreated to her backyard to pace out the dimensions for her desired laboratory. Standen studies fish to understand the evolution of animal biomechanics. Her work demands large equipment, including a 700-litre flow tank, and she hoped to staff her lab with graduate students, postdocs and a technician. In her view, her potential for success was tied directly to having enough room for equipment, staff and bench space.
