Synopsis "Today's Curiosity is Tomorrow's Cure: The Case for Basic Biomedical Research (in English)"
Basic curiosity-driven biomedical science has delivered many of today's most significant medical advances. This book provides clearly explained examples from recent biomedical history and includes convincing arguments for sustaining a robust portfolio of basic research.
