What is Trends In The Early Careers Of Life Scientists about?

The Committee Was Charged To Examine Trends In Research Careers Of Life Scientists In Training, At The Conclusion Of Training, And In The Years Immediately After Training And To Examine The Implication Of These Trends For The Persons Involved And For The Health Of The Life-science Enterprise.
