If I could add my $0.02 to this. I agree that making science “faster” doesn’t mean its better

2/5 Part of the issue here is the long time it takes from discovery to translation, which is where funding helps.

3/5 When a problem is scale, e.g., a mouse brain atlas (
@Allen_Institute ), acceleration thru industry-type funding & practice can help -
4/5 BUT when a problem has no clear answer yet (cure for Alzheimers), faster is not necessarily better - you can't think faster with more $$
-
5/5 We need to be careful about over-promising just b/c the $$ is there. Overpromising & underdelivering severely strain credibility

ok, back to working on my grant application now
