## Resource

In this episode, we’re back in Elyse’s corner, and today, we’re talking about how governments and politics in general influence medical research and how it is conducted. Remember, you can get in touch with us via clinical.research.intro@gmail.com. Please feel free to send questions, comments and compliments for Elyse to read out on the pod.
