Congrats! And likewise I survived, and recovered with little to no after-effects following treatment that was non-existent in previous years. In fact
surviving has become such a common phenomenon these days, that doctors have only recently started noticing how much even
that event changes folks lives!
That said, there's a growing movement advocated by some groups like
Livestrong, which pharma and the research biz have so far been slow to embrace. This emphasizes
integrating research, collaboration, and data sharing across various disciplines and clinical sciences, to facilitate more rapid application of research findings. Instead of the typical current approach of many individual ''siloed'' research efforts, each seeking some ''magic bullet'' or ''one-size-fits-all'' cure... uniquely their own.
