ASBMB response to the National Institutes of Health request for information on a proposed emeritus award for senior investigators
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The ASBMB is not in favor of such an award. Economic incentives typically benefit the group receiving the direct investment. Thus, emeritus awards will benefit eligible senior scientists; however, even with the stipulation that the award focus on mentoring, its effects, if any, on junior faculty members will be difficult to discern. Moreover, as discussed in point 6, such an award mechanism may have several unintended consequences.
