But things may be about to change dramatically.

Dr. DeFelices answer seems simple at firstperhaps too simple.Its called Doctornauts, the term he coined to describe physicians who can more easily volunteer for clinical studies than the rest of us.These physician-volunteers can be the subjects in clinical trials that the general public cannot participate in because of legal and ethical concerns.
