I was very pleased to see that the STFC has in place a former Dr Who as Director of IT and International Strategy. I believe that this is very forward thinking of the Council. After all, you don’t get much more international than Gallifrey, and there’s not a lot that Dr Who doesn’t know about IT.
I hope this is the first of many such appointments. I look forward to Jude the Apostle being appointed to oversee the Shared Services Centre, and Richard Nixon taking over RCUK’s ‘Open Access’ remit.
But wait! Hasn’t Jon Pertwee already bagged a peachy research leadership job already? Don’t question the Doctor’s abilities. He can time travel and shape shift. And he’s two for the price of one. No wonder the Treasury was happy.
