I think it will, but if the number of tenure-track positions continues to decrease, it will still have a limited impact, because the number of jobs available for young scientists in general is still decreasing compared to the number of scientists who are graduating. In many fields there is no industry for scientists. The place where scientific research occurs is within the university. I think that's a great piece of legislation, but I think there has to be something that is a better connector between the post-doctoral fellowship or the Ph.D. and the point of getting a tenure-track position.
