Hi all,
I do not think I can add any more than whats already been said, but here is my two cents worth. CS, Indigo, Paula, Rick.......I agree with you said, but the researchers as a group can do a bit more. These days research is more for papers, patents and of course profit and not necessarily for patients. My hope as a researcher is that contact and communication with the patient reminds us why we are in this business of R&D in the first place. Next comes the partnership and sharing information. This initiative has to come from the scientists and the scientific organizations and the funding agencies. For example, Invite patient advocates or patients to participate in scientific meetings (atleast one session) and let them talk to us. What good is research if you cannot explain tothe person who might benefit from it? Thanks for listening. Girija Last edited by girija; 12-21-2008 at 05:45 AM. Reason: enough said |
