There's no rigour to this. It's just idle self-indulgent noodling. Seriously man. It's a lot of people and enough doctors working together to achieve something

There's no rigour to this. It's just idle self-indulgent noodling.
Seriously man. It's a lot of people and enough doctors working together to achieve something. Things like:
- He is cured of cancer
- Other people are cured of cancer
- New things are learned about how to treat cancer more effectively
... and probably other things that can't be predicted, but which could possibly turn out to be far more valuable.
That's the point to remember about innovation - which I consider this to be; you can't predict where things may lead, and often what you discover is different to what you expected.
But to me that's why this is interesting; I've long thought that there could be place for the processes we see in open-source projects (as well as startup companies) in medicine.

Things like: - He is cured of cancer" And without the proper rigor, this can not be possible to determine. That he has no cancer can more easily be determined, but the whys and hows may have nothing to do with his process.
