Alexander Dorozynski | Oct 4, 1987 | 4 min read
PARIS—The Pasteur Institute, which over the past century has evolved into a major center of biomedical research, celebrate its centennial this week with unusual panache for such a venerable institution.

French President Francois Mitterand and Prime Minister Jacques Chirac will launch the anniversary events, which include a conference on the f

Yet the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health don't really know how many of them there are. And many human resources pros don't even know who they are in their own companies. These mystery lab workers are postdoctoral research associates, or "postdocs," who cling to an ill-
