On first glance, this looks to me like another cash grab for science policy makers and their friends. Color me unimpressed, just like with the stupid BRAIN initiative.
Eh, I'm more favorable towards the BRAIN initiative. This one seems like a weird problem to just throw money at, given that there are plenty of monetary incentives for private companies to do this (and do it well). Here, I'm tempted to say that they would be better off just reforming the process of clinical trials.
