Remembering #Higgs: "Shortly after being awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2013, Peter Higgs said he doubted he would have gotten a job, not to mention tenure, in today’s academic system. He simply wouldn’t have been “productive” enough, with academe’s premium on publication metrics. Conversely, said Higgs, working in today’s academic system probably wouldn’t have afforded him the opportunity to identify how subatomic material requires mass."
