SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY: Satisfaction Sans Status.
When University of California, Irvine, developmental biologist Susan Bryant married David Gardiner, Gardiner took a soft-money position as a researcher at Irvine. Because Gardiner was flexible in his goals and committed to raising children, it seemed a better choice than trying to get two jobs somewhere else, he recalls. And 17 years and two children later, Gardiner says that decision was right for them as a couple--and that he has learned to endure the indignities that come with the territory.
