...exodus has forced many universities to fast-track underqualified teachers to full professorship, or simply to suspend entire departments. This means Iraq's students are getting a poor education, with disastrous consequences for the country's future.

You also have promotions of a lot of younger guys who aren't always completely confident in themselves because they haven't been to enough fires or incidents, or because they're leading...
...Brawl in California" [Aug. 7] gave the impression that litigation against the California Institute of Regenerative Medicine has created an exodus of stem-cell researchers from California. In fact few if any have left, and dozens have moved to the state because of supportive state laws and stable funding opportunities. In addition, our institute recently established a training program at 16 state institutions that will train 169 young researchers, including predoctoral, postdoctoral and clinical fellows, many of whom have come from out of state or from overseas. ZACH W. HALL, PRESIDENT CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE FOR REGENERATIVE MEDICINE San Francisco...
