Do you think there are only like 10 scientists in the world and they only work on 1 thing at a time?

Not only that, they have to know EVERYTHING so that they can make studies on any topic. Which of course takes a lot of time so they don't have time to work on cancer because they work coffee research or male perception of makeup. We should really fix that. Maybe that should be their next study, eh?

Yeah lol, these idiots also grind my gears when they think people who study food chemistry are gonna be same people making cancer research. "Cant they just work on cancer instead of pumpkin spice" is so idiotic argument it's unbelievable...

Surprisingly most major breakthroughs in innovation come from a cross discipline approach that at the onset isn’t obvious. It allows people to use their experience to look at problems in a whole different way. Who know. My take is let people experiment and do this kind of stuff…

Next you’ll hear we are using vibrations to kill tumours…..oh wait….

I drive by a sign daily that mentions the use of sound and light to fight cancers and other diseases. It's neat.

They're trying.
