If you were a scientist, would you take Macrons offer to research in France?

I'd go and study how long his grandmother wife has been barren

I have a friend who just finished his doctorate in immunology, looking for a post doc position. Would like to go abroad in Europe for it, but the issue is everywhere else but the US is shite for research by comparison. They all leech off our r&d just like they leech off our military protection

sure, it would be a fun experience for a few years

If you go anywhere go to China, if you don't mind a little communism. Their research expenditure is booming while ours has been going to shite over the last 10 years. Still, it's way better to stay here.

Sorry yall hate france. I'm from Louisiana . That's literally where much of our eating drinking culture we have is from. France is actually great country if I can handle the cigarette smoking.

I am a scientist and travel to France often for work. Love it there, love the people.

But I haven't let the backwards conservatives in Louisiana chase me away to a more progressive state, and I'm not going to let the backwards conservatives in Washington chase me to a more progressive country.

If an unbeatable opportunity were to arise in France, I'd go in a second. And if the GOP's anti-science policies gain traction, the USA will eventually suffer from brain drain. But for now, I'm perfectly happy to be here spending my days doing science, my weekends watching LSU, and donating, volunteering, and voting for progressive leaders that will eventually see this place that I love prosper.

I looked into it out of curiosity. They want PhDs in environmental fields, so it's not like every scientist is eligible in the first place.

I doubt I'd take up the offer even if I had a PhD. I like Boston too much.
