Sounds like good news, though!
I can't answer the question because I don't even now anyone with direct experience, but I must admit performative healthcare was largely what I...
I'd say it probably indicates that there isn't anything else to try. But what's behind my unease is that it's not getting funding and running...
That's a really valid point, but I'm a bit worried about the ethics of getting the experience this way. These drugs aren't benign and there's...
