Template switch

[edit]

This revert claimed that information on awards and employers was removed by the template switch. However, a careful look at the output of both versions shows no inappropriate removal occurred, and in fact the previous version was more appropriate. The previous version represented FRS as a suffix and Goodenough as an award, as they should be; it also omitted the inappropriate representation of the PhD as an award introduced by the revert. As to employers, let's look at the list introduced by the revert: University of Oxford, Clarendon Laboratory, St Catherine's College, Science and Technology Facilities Council, ISIS neutron source, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. The first and last of these are included in the previous version, and expressed in a more accessible manner. ISIS is a more specific version and STFC a more general version of the last entry; we can discuss which one should be used, but having all three is redundant. Similarly, St Catherine's and Clarendon are both part of Oxford, so having all three is redundant. Because of these issues, I'm restoring the previous version.
