It’s difficult to know if this might just be a correlation to age of onset, plus the effect of new project or work. Maybe other graduates of similar careers (i.e. chemists going into big pharma) that doesn’t go into PhD programmes would be a nice control. But there’s no curve there.

Alas, I know academia is difficult. But I wouldn’t dare drawing conclusions without a proper comparison.

I completed my chemistry PhD with the sole purpose of landing a job in big pharma (which I did). The curve is accurate with regard to my experience
