Survey of Computer Use by Scientists

A colleague from the University of Toronto is conducting a survey on how computers are used by scientists today.  Whether you are a physicist who writes code or a biologist who barely know Excel, you’ll find the survey interesting and your input will be appreciated. Here’s the announcement and link:

Computers are as important to modern scientists as test tubes,
but we know surprisingly little about how scientists develop
and use software in their research.  To find out, the University
of Toronto, Simula Research Laboratory, and the National Research
Council of Canada have launched an online survey in conjunction
with “American Scientist” magazine. If you have 20 minutes to take
part, please go to:

Thanks in advance for your help!
