Umm, imagine people building you a house that you have to live in and then telling you, “Hey, we didn’t bother getting your opinion when we were designing and building the house. But you’re welcome to try working with us now.” Yeah, that’s not the same as letting you design and build the house from the start.
All of this doesn’t mean that the NIH isn’t in need of major restructuring. A lot of the basis for the current structure of the NIH emerged decades ago—in some cases even before the 1970s leisure polyester suits were popular. In the same way that adding fashion accessories won’t override the fact that you are wearing a leisure suit to a date, simply adding to or tinkering with the current NIH structure may not fix deeper problems with the existing structure.
Things would become even tougher for scientists who have been highly productive with Rodgers’ proposal to limit researchers to holding no more than three NIH active grants and awards at a time. Ummm, things don’t work too well when you effectively tell successful people, “Yeah, we don’t want you to become too successful.” If you want to provide more support to newer scientists, you can’t just slice up the same pie in a different way. You’ve got to make the overall pie bigger.
