Biotechnology: delivering on the promise.

abstract：:In recent years, there has been a growing focus on the unreliability of published biomedical and clinical research. To introduce effective new scientific contributors to the culture of health care, we propose a "datathon" or "hackathon" model in which participants with disparate, but potentially synergistic and comple...
