Y un artículo sobre la fuga de cerebros en Financial Times: "Brain drain in Spain leaves scientific research on the wane [...] Spending on science and research has been cut dramatically as part of the Spanish government’s broader austerity programme. Universities and research centres complain there is sometimes not even money to pay for gloves, lab coats and basic materials such as liquid nitrogen. New teaching posts, such as the one promised to Ms Moro-Martín and other Ramón y Cajal fellows, are few and far between – a dearth that is driving many of the best young Spanish scientists out of the country or out of academic research altogether. “We basically have no hope of getting a permanent position. There is no future for us here so we have to leave,” says Ms Moro-Martín. After five years at the Centre for Astrobiology in Madrid, she will pack her bags at the end of the year to take up a new position at a US space research centre in Baltimore. It is, she says, a familiar story: “When you walk through my centre these days, you can hear the echo of silence. It is emptying.” On Friday, thousands of young scientists and researchers will once again take to the streets of Madrid, Barcelona and other Spanish cities to highlight their plight – and to warn of the risks that the current brain-drain poses to the country in the long term. Critics accuse the government of hacking away at one of the key pillars of future economic recovery." ft/intl/cms/s/0/adb56dfe-d40e-11e2-8639-00144feab7de.html#axzz2WBNJdovH
