Por eso decimos q la sociedad necesita muchos más doctores. Que la incorporación de doctores, abriría a las empresas (aunque estas no lo sepan) un enorme potencial. Y los q formamos doctores no aspiramos solo a producir más investigadores, sino a mejorar con ello la sociedad

La actividad investigadora obliga a desarrollar todas esas capacidades. Pero fijaos que alguien q haya adquirido ese potencial no solamente está preparado para investigar, sino también para abordar problemas complejos de la sociedad a muchos niveles. En las empresas, por ejemplo
