Why Doctor J and RFK Jr. are going to do well.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, Trump’s incoming healthcare team are putting the fear of God back into the appeasing medical field. Below is an example I found on Medpage.
Kennedy and others have proposed a dramatic restructuring of the research funder, one that would halt infectious disease research, pare down its 27 institutes to 15, and replace its employees with real doctors and scientists. Edited.
Bhattacharya and others in Trump’s Republican camp have characterized the NIH as a bureaucratic, wasteful institution that has stifled creativity in research and blocked contributions like Bhattacharya’s own controversial epidemiological ideas.
