STAP細胞報告前夜、小保方晴子さんは優秀な研究者である
以下に示したのが、小保方晴子さんの研究実績である。３０歳という年齢からは考えられないくらいに充実した研究内容である。１月のSTAP細胞の報告会前夜には素晴らしい研究者であることがわかる。
現時点では、STAP細胞の評価が定まらず、小保方さんの研究者としての地位も揺らいでいる。
しかし、もし、STAP細胞の存在が証明されれば、再び研究者として復帰するに十分な実力を有していることは、下記リストからして、確かである。特に、今回のSTAP細胞に関しては、共同著者のBさん、Cさん他は私たちは知らない・関係ないとの態度であるから、STAP細胞の真の開発者は小保方さんであることは明白である。
一日も早く、STAP細胞の存在が証明されることを祈っている。

この記事へのコメント
私は外国の研究所や投資家から、小保方さんに対して好条件でヘッドハンティングされて海を渡る事を心配しています。笹井さんと小保方さんのどちらが大切か常識で考えても分かる。将来性とこの画期的な発見に対して小保方さんの方が重要人物( VIP )です。世界でただ1人ＳＴＡＰ細胞作製の重要なレシピを持っている。
成功した仕事には多くの人が私こそが貢献者と名乗りを上げ、失敗した仕事には自己の保身のためにその責任者を作り上げる、日本の悪習があるように思います。
減点主義か、加点主義か、にも通ずるところですが、日本の社会は、まだまだ「休まず、遅れず、働かず」が幅を利かせ、前例に挑戦する人間には住みにくい減点主義社会のようです。就業時間中に喫煙ルームに入り浸るなど、どれだけコミュニケーションの場を作ることができるかの方が出世のためには大切とされていると感じます。私の偏った被害妄想的な見方かもしれませんが。
会社勤務で組織に忠誠を尽くし自己を見失った人は大勢います。会社勤務時代の取締役や部長と言った肩書きは、リタイアして1個人に成れば何の価値も有りません。私は町内会の世話人を最近初めましたが、近所付き合いに於いて、過去の会社の地位を出している滑稽な人もいます。
☆☆私の偏った被害妄想的な見方かもしれませんが。☆☆
私も窓際の経験があります。要領の良い人が上司に引き立てられるのを横目で見ていた事があります。地道にコツコツと励んでいる人は往々にして損する事が多いです。結論から言えば目立つ方が得ですね。
お互いにブログを公開して自分の意見をドンドン言っている事は過去の不足分を取り返して、十分にお釣りが有ると思います。(^_^)
