CATALYTIC REACTIONS

In this issue, we are asking for your reactions in four areas: chemistry at NIH, Building 50, Hot Methods Clinic, and parenthood vs. research. Send your responses on these topics or your comments on other intramural research concerns to us via e-mail: catalyst@od1em1.od.nih.gov; fax: 402-4303; or mail: Building 1, Room 334.


1) What do you see in the future for chemistry at NIH? Are chemists' complaints justified? What steps should NIH take now?








2) What are your general reactions to the design proposals for Building 50? What do you like? What should be different?








3) The Hot Methods Clinic will return soon. What updates can you provide on previous Hot Methods? What techniques would you like to see covered in the future?








4) We are considering an article about NIH researchers who are also parents. What does it take to be a good parent and a good scientist? How could NIH be more family friendly? What is the optimal timing of careers and kids? What are the problems and solutions?








In Future Issues. . .

  • Should NIH Start A Grad School?

  • The Latest Trends In Image Processing

  • Good Scientists and Good Parents?

  • Biomedicine's Best "Bookmarks"
