As a nation, we’re risk adverse, over-regulated and over-lawyered, a bad combination for innovation of any kind, but deadly for medical technology and drug innovation. No small part of the problem is the mind-set that for every bad thing that happens or even might happen, someone somewhere is responsible and consequently must pay. What a strange pass we’ve come to. I hope we can find our way around, over or through it.
