?? Not sure if you have confused education/academic lecturers and lecturer cum research scientists ?

You are confused. 

How do you think new research on cancer treatment, heart disease treatment is published?  It is done by practising oncologists, cardiologists and surgeons.  You can do studies on rats in the lab but the most important studies are done on real humans by doctors practising real medicine. 

How do you think a new surgeon learns? From a textbook?

I grow weary of spoon feeding you stuff while you pretend I am the one confused.

Oil prices are soaring on bullish factors, with the prospect of a new Trump administration coming into the White House and a new Secretary of Energy about to turf out the junk science which has gripped the previous Washington chumps.

"Bullish sentiment is well and truly back in oil markets, with Brent breaking $80 and WTI trading at $77.46."

"Oil prices have started the year rallying aggressively, with Brent breaking $80 per barrel for the first time since October 7 last year. The rally has been driven by the Biden Administration’s eleventh-hour sanctions on Russia, cold temperatures across the Atlantic Basin, widening backwardation in all crude futures, and continued concerns about inflation. For the first time in months, the oil market is feeling very bullish."

More of this "Trump can change science" nonsense.

How quickly Eco forgets that Trump already had a term in office. Climate science easily survived his first term...

The oil price bump is due to war (no surprise) https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/Oil-Prices-Skyrocket-45-as-US-Targets-Russian-Tankers.html

🤔....... Things might not be what you have written.

1. Practising specialists

- they learn from

a) text books and lectures when they are in first year ( basic medical sc)

b) personal experience of lecturers when they are in second and third year ( specific fields of medical sc)

c) when they are interning in the wad, they learn from lecturer or doctor leading the group by watching ( too many intake of students from too many universities to allow hands on). Fourth year, fifth year would be more specialized medical subjects e.g. surgery, gyne & child labouring,  endocrine, ear & throat, guts, bones etc.

d) upon graduation, they have 2 years of housemanship ( government here prolongs it from one year because the quality of graduates has been consistently very poor. It will increase to 3 years soon). This period, they learn from senior doctors assigned to them.

Hence, we could deduce that their primary sources of info are 

a) text book and

b) lecturers & supervisors.

If supervisors learn no special  experience or outside textbook knowledge  from their lecturers, senior doctors, heads of division and personal handling, they will have no additional info on field. Consequently nothing new to teach to their juniors and every new badge thereafter. 

In addition, in a competitive world for progress and arrogant of some young doctors, seniors likely won't say anything unless relevant or similar condition of case emerge. Or they might be labelled as lengthy or talking too much by juniors. Yet face competition from some smarter juniors for permanent placement or job.

 

2. Doctors undertake master, phD or fellow in research after graduation or practising medical doctors who supervise research students from another course e.g. biomed, bioscience etc. 

( As mentioned, tuition fees they pay would suffice for few badges of rats etc, or private fund secured or government allowance when application is submitted)

- if not mistaken, doctors used to be very busy ( now, they have overstaff until they want to make themselves look busy or pretend to be, if they are not. E.g.

in the old days, when doctors were real busy, they would find out your history of visit, treatment done, diagnosis and current situation before prescribing. They hoped to heal you completely so that you need not return.

Nowadays, those young genious never need patients history, past treatment, diagnosis etc. They don't even interested to know what's wrong with you before they prescribe the same medication, sometimes overdoze, sometimes for 3 months, on every similar symptoms. And request you to go back every week or month... @#$_&-?!*)

- owing to their busy schedule, they rarely have time for research.

How do they have new discovery? 

a) clinical phase of drug testing ( not their research, they just watch and confirm it. Results owned and published by related pharma firm under a name in the research lab they established)

b) hear about it from presentors of other countries in conferences and ask research students to try it back home.

c) from research students they supervise...

- new surgeons learned by working on dummies until they sweat no more... Therefore, permanent contract issuance rate is very low nowadays.

 

Conclusion: cutting this automatic payout for a few years would be alright.
