Vincent Rajkumar: A good motto in medicine is See one, Do one, Teach one
Vincent Rajkumar, Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, posted on X:
“Just closed our ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group myeloma committee call. Wow!
If only the frequent critics of clinical trials and trialists see how hard and for how long investigators toil to get a clinical trial protocol developed and approved…and the many disappointments and rejections they face.
A good motto in medicine is See one, Do one, Teach one…
You will then have more impact and with your critiques. You may also likely be more kind to your clinical trialist colleagues who do the hard work and make progress in medicine.”
