L’article del Chemistry World A reality check on Chemist v2.0 parla de les persones que investiguen en química i a la vegada dominen els aspectes experimentals i els teòrics. S’hi posen alguns exemples reals de gent que diu dominar tots dos móns.
More chemists are moving to a way of working that combines theory and experiment
a chemist who seamlessly integrates theory and experiment – not merely blending data from both sides but synthesising them in a meaningful and profound way.
Una mica és la idea que hi ha a l’IQCC de la UdG, tant en la recerca con el el màster MACMOM. No sé però si realment s’ha d’aconseguir que algú domini tots dos móns, o que grupalment s’aconsegueixe aquesta fita. Segurament és més fàcil això últim.
Algunes opinions a l’article:
while the advantages of a chemist v2.0 are clear, one must not forget the importance of specialisation. As Greb says: ‘If uncertainty arises, it’s best to seek input from dedicated experts.’
Stepping out of our comfort zone and speaking both ”languages” seems the only way forward.
Developing a deep understanding in both theory and experiment is like training to fence with both hands: difficult, but pays off in the end!
I l’article acaba així:
the notion of chemist v2.0 is bound to be with us in the years to come. It tentatively appeared in the past and has quite dynamically spread in the present, so why shouldn’t it be unambiguously established in the future? The needs of modern society demand it.
Per pensar-hi.
