Hello everyone, I have a background in the sciences and tried for six years after graduation to either get a full time permanent job or into graduate school within the field, but no luck.
As of right now, I have a permanent job (not in the sciences), but this field is still a true passion of mine and I was wondering if it was possible to continue being a part of this field, but as a volunteer. I truly enjoy being a part of it and there are certain areas that I still want to go and help out with research. I'd be willing to take the vacation time off and pay any necessary fees. My main question was do scientists still welcome help on projects, not necessarily citizen science based, even if the person doing the help is not a scientist themselves (but has the passion, experience, and background)? Thanks, Angela
