The bigger problem is that the awarding of grants and funding follows the
same pattern, and the problem extends from medicine to all disciplines of
science. As an agricultural scientist, I can tell you many researchers are
forced to spend up to 30% of their time writing proposals (that now have
ridiculously onerous eligibility / matching funds requirements etc.),
proposals that have a 3% success rate. So 97% of the scientists are getting
no public support at all. Proposal-writing has become a complete waste of
everyone's valuable time, and the USDA is now virtually worthless as a
source of funding for any basic agricultural research. |

科学总是在向前进的。今天的发现,可能就在将来被证明是错的。

别的行业,人家不在学校混了,不搞科学了,能比较容易找到本行业公司的工作。此处
不留爷,自有留爷处,教授也不敢装大爷,形成良性的双向选择。

时就下决心了,我这一辈子绝对不当教授。

巴巴的几个小钱真可怜。所以邪恶的都是工业界。自己有钱干啥都行。克隆人都没人管。
俺办公室一半人吃饱了撑的都有事情干。俺跑了路的director以前在自己办公室捣鼓中
学生们捣鼓的机器人。和我最friend的那位高加索人在研究电池。Cubic里收了无数破
烂。把废旧笔记本电池收回来拆开。从中国进口无数几块钱的小模块做电池的试验。
其实哪些学霸又能把持多久。就连图灵奖也越来越多是工业界得奖。炸药奖不也照样有
有应用领域的获奖。深圳哪几个上Cell杂志的就压根不鸟中科院哪些老爷们。你不鸟他
们,他们就屁都不是。
