Who this advisor fits / 什么情况下适合你
- You care about faculty-track outcomes; public alumni rows include verifiable faculty placements.
- Industry research or startup/translation paths appeal to you (meaningful share in public outcomes).
- Use the research-fit evidence first, then verify recent advisor-specific placements, current funding, active recruiting, and program home directly.
- 你在意学术教职/教职轨去向，公开校友里有可核对的教职案例。
- 工业研究或创业/转化路径对你有吸引力（公开去向里占比不低）。
- 首先，请优先使用研究契合度证据，随后核实近期导师的具体安置情况、当前资助状态、活跃招募状态以及项目所在地。
What to watch for / 什么情况下要慎重
- Faculty-only is your sole goal and you want zero industry/translation exposure.
- 你把「教职为唯一目标」且完全不想碰工业/转化网络。
