Taking Bold Bets: NIH and the Future of Biomedical Science

The American people are not stupid. In fact, they're quite smart. And when we talk to them in ways where we show

respect for their intelligence with data, allow people to disagree, but then have the evidence right there in front

of people, I think people people will respond with trust where the evidence actually leads. We need kind of that

Silicon Valley spirit. We should stop punishing scientists who fail. If they fail productively, let them publish in a journal that explain why they're what

they what they learn from it. like that Silicon Valley spirit I think needs to come to science a little bit more.
