I think it’s very relevant that scientists, physicians, and patients can share their experiences because each of those groups has its own perspective on the issues. You notice that certain aspects are very important for patients, but that these same aspects often fly below the radar of the scientists and physicians. Vice versa, when patients come into contact with the research world, they understand that not everything can be solved in the blink of an eye.
