Postdoc blues

September 19, 2003

How disappointing that you call postdoctoral researchers "students" ("Get a life? Not with our hours", THES , August 22). They are highly qualified professionals, many world experts in their fields. They do much of the productive research in universities.

No wonder they despair of changing such a deeply embedded culture.
