When she was a pediatrics resident at Stanford University doing her rounds on the hospital wards or seeing patients in her continuity clinic, Eliana Perrin always had many questions for her supervising physicians questions about why certain children came into care sicker than others, or how the challenges some patients encountered in their day-to-day lives affected their health. One astute attending told me, You ask lots of questions, and you ask the kinds of questions that can t be answered at the bedside, Perrin remembers. The attending physician recommended that Perrin pursue research training to learn how to investigate difficult questions like these and begin to think more upstream than busy clinical practice allows.

But, he said, we can reach a point where the severity of the disease is limited enough that people can engage in their normal lives with minimal risk.
