Further research, perhaps showing that massage can shorten patients' hospital stays or reduce their analgesics use, may prompt hospitals to include...
...average, science Ph.D.s are 41.8 years old by the time they receive their first grant, according to the NIH. The committee also suggested considering the wider impact of proposed research by creating grant committees with academics from other fields, who could better consider a project’s broader implications.
