How patient-led research and citizen scientists are advancing scientific discovery

Research in Action - A podcast by Oracle Corporation

Categories:

How can patients and their families become more integral in the research process and drug discovery? How can citizen scientists and patient-led research become more accepted in the scientific community? And who qualifies as a citizen scientist? We will tackle those questions and much more in this episode with Amy Dockser Marcus, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of the recently published book, “We The Scientists: How a daring team of parents and doctors forged a new path for medicine.” Amy is a veteran reporter at the Wall Street Journal and won her Pulitzer Prize for Beat Reporting in 2005 for her series of stories about cancer survivors and the social, economic, and health challenges they faced living with the disease. She has covered science and health at the Journal for years, and she also earned a Master of Bioethics from Harvard Medical School.
