In pharma, I guess the goal of a researcher is not to see the ideas through to application, but just stop at "promising" and hope it will get picked up elsewhere.
Research stops at "and then follows usefulness."
Development then takes over.
R: Invents new compounds of potential therapeutic value.
D: Makes that compound useful and marketable.
R&D != R and != D.
(This model is generally applicable).

@jacobsimmering So I asked ChatGPT what does the R stand for: "The research component involves gathering information and conducting experiments to understand the feasibility and potential of an idea"
