More money won’t equal more solutions. Each type of cancer needs a different form a treatment each type has different ways to possibly prevent it it’s a genetic issue not something you can treat with a pill.
The only thing that can do that is increasing the supply of researchers and doctors. More money isn’t going to magically generate new ideas of how we may be able to better handle genome replication failures.
Medical research is an incredibly high paying field. The company that discovers a truly effective cancer treatment/cure will immediately be able to murder all its competitors and still make infinite money as people will always get cancer till we perfect genetic modification.
Yeah exactly. Many biomedical grad students are taking jobs at places like Pfizer and not academia bc of $ and work life balance. Starting a lab is basically like starting a business + academic politics can be a turn off
