Picking a gift for a postdoctoral research associates
Postdoctoral research associates have finished a doctorate and are now in the stretch of years where they run experiments, write grant proposals and chase publications, often on a short contract that moves them to a new city every few years. Long hours in the lab, late nights before a submission deadline and a steady stream of rejected manuscripts are part of the job, so a gift that acknowledges the work, not just the title, tends to land well. A shirt or hoodie with their field or lab name on the back gives them something to wear on the days when the data won't cooperate. A mug is a quiet nod to the coffee that keeps the bench moving. Adding their institution, their field, or the year they started a postdoc turns a generic gift into one that marks where they are in a career that can feel long and uncertain. If you're buying for someone in a particular lab, a shared design can make the whole group feel recognized.

Can I add a field or lab name to the shirt?
Yes. Many designs have a second line for a field, lab or institution. Type it in and the preview will update so you can check the spacing.
Can I order shirts for everyone in a lab?
Yes. In the Team Shop, choose one design, paste the list of names, and pick a size for each person. Each shirt prints with its own name.
What is a good gift for someone starting a postdoc?
A mug or hoodie with their title and the year they started is a practical choice. It's something they can use daily while they settle into a new lab and city.
Are there designs for children?
Yes. There are kids tees, dark kids tees and a baby onesie design. Use the product filter to see the options for the word.

Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
