Let me clarify again-- It's OK with NIH if your trainee continues doing
scientific research (industry or academic setting), but it's not OK if
they go to law school (patent lawyer), scientific journalism, tech
transfer etc.
I guess this is what I get for sending these messages on the fly (eg.,
coffee breaks and waiting for appointments to show up).
