长期以来，人们错误地假设生物医学科学的发展永无止境，这造成了一个不可持续的竞争体系，甚至阻碍了最优秀的未来学生进入我们的专业，也使经验丰富的研究人员很难做出最好的工作。这是一个长期衰退的处方，问题不能用简单的方法解决。相反，现在是时候面对眼前的危险，重新思考美国生物医学研究生态系统的一些基本特征了。
The long-held but erroneous assumption of never-ending rapid growth in biomedical science has created an unsustainable hypercompetitive system that is discouraging even the most outstanding prospective students from entering our profession-and making it difficult for seasoned investigators to produce their best work. This is a recipe for long-term decline, and the problems cannot be solved with simplistic approaches. Instead, it is time to confront the dangers at hand and rethink some fundamental features of the US biomedical research ecosystem.
