Saloni Dattani - The Hidden Bottleneck Holding Back the Future of Medicine (Ep. 312)

April 30, 2026·1h 25m
Episode Description from the Publisher

Saloni Dattani, author of the Scientific Discovery Substack and founding editor of Works in Progress magazine, joins Infinite Loops to discuss why medical innovation is often much slower than it needs to be. We explore why so much research still begins in animal models, how poor data distorts our understanding of disease, why clinical trials are one of the biggest bottlenecks in medicine, and how better systems could help promising treatments reach patients faster.
