This is an excellent resource and useful in a number of different ways. The research is interesting but so is the description of the drivers in science and medicine. I will be trying to incorporate presentations like this when helping medical students to make career decisions. Ioan Davies

This is an excellent resource, not only from the viewpoint of the science but also because of the concise discussion about the drivers behind science and medicine. I will be trying to use resources like this when advising medical students about their career choices
