I am sure his reason for leaving academia is multi-faceted. His publication record (it's not that bad really. Maybe not competitive enough for a tenure track position) and his other scientific communication activities probably are part of it. But I don't think it detracts from his complaints about academia.

> I am sure his reason for leaving academia is multi-faceted. Oh, absolutely. Another reason that I didn't include in my OP is that he got his Green Card on August 3rd[0], which probably opened up a lot of options that he didn't have before, at least if he wanted to stay in the country. Many postdocs do not have the luxury of a Green Card and its attendant freedom. 0: https://www.facebook.com/jfgariepyneuro/posts/455403391298027 https://www.facebook.com/jfgariepyneuro/posts/45540339129802...
