First studies with new findings should be small, surely, so we can weed out effects to test with larger studies. The question is whether the larger studies are being done? The incentives are such that democratic governments need to be leading the research, IMO.
How do we ensure at a national level (because studies probably need to be repeated in different nations) we're doing good science, backing up key results, informing the population what the better ways of behaving are?
