Explainer: What happens in medical research before clinical trials begin?
1 month ago | By Discovery's Edge
When scientific advances burst into the news, such as a new medication to treat COVID-19 or a new concept like CRISPR for gene editing, people get a glimpse of how a scientific idea becomes a treatment or a tool.
But what's the full story?
Where did that idea come from? What happens in the research lab before clinical trials begin? How is scientific discovery transformed into a potential therapy that is ready to be tested in trials with human participants?
Get these answers and more by watching " The Discovery Science Journey " to learn in three minutes:
How the process starts in the lab...
