Article Abstract:

The exodus of scientists from academia into industry jobs has become so common that it barely raises an eyebrow anymore. The move from business to academia, on the other hand, is a lot more unusual, although for mathematician Andrew Odlyzko and nanotech pioneer Jim Gimzewski, it means more control over intellectual property, and allows more interaction with fellow academics and students, which lets them choose with whom they do or do not collaborate.
