  • (3) Earnings of an Investigator are strictly coupled to how he spends time from minute to minute, whereas a Physician’s earnings are not tightly coupled to every day working hours.
  • (4) Information needs of Investigators are solely academic, where as the needs of Physicians are both academic and utilitarian
