Jake , an editor at magazine, made the point that a broader base of personal histories can improve the process of deciding what scientific issues to work on:

"Somebody decides how to teach chemistry, which things count as “important” and which are niche specializations. There is nothing scientifically objective about that decision process. Mostly those decisions aren’t made by people living next door to landfills and mines."
