The panel's co-chair, biologist Torsten Wiesel of Rockefeller University in
New York City, is surprised to learn that this aging trend continues today:
“You'd think with all the money that's going into NIH, [young scientists]
would be doing better.” His co-chair, biologist Shirley Tilghman, now
president of Princeton University, says simply, “It's appalling.” The data
reviewed by the panel in 1994 looked “bad,” she says, “but compared to
today, they actually look pretty good.” She adds: “The notion that our
field right now has such a tiny percentage of people under the age of 35
initiating research … is very unhealthy and very worrisome.” ...Experts
differ on why older biomedical researchers are receiving a growing share of
the pie these days and on what should be done about it. But they agree on
the basic problem: The system is taking longer to launch young biologists. | H****N
