caveat: it's hard to get back into academia _and get paid_. if you are sufficiently motivated you can join a research group gratis and just pitch in and do research - most PIs i've met don't mind other people generating results for them. it really is a gig though, maybe something you do when you don't need cash.

PIs are busy people; they will turn most of their attention on grant-funded critical-path projects. It's a similar instance of this problem: http://pgbovine.net/fellowship-warnings.htm http://pgbovine.net/fellowship-warnings.htm
