Former American intelligence and nonproliferation experts said the C.I.A. was aware of some, but not all, of these activities, and began tracking scientists at the Khan laboratory.
These days some pretenure-track scientists are setting up their own research programs.
NCAR is home to more than 950 permanent staff, including more than 120 "ladder-track" scientists.
This trend provides greater pressure for tenure-track scientists and engineers to move away from "nontechnical" and "soft" pursuits.
Certainly, counting and tracking scientists would be far easier tasks than recent federal projects such as mapping the human genome or landing a rover on Mars.
Study sections would also have to take non-tenure-track scientists' beginner status into account in rating their proposals, the group agreed.
Here's the lowdown on U.S. postdocs: The United States has a rather complex system for classifying postdoctoral, pre-tenure-track scientists.
