Reza Mirza: The History and Future of Single-Subject Science
Reza Mirza is a resident doctor at McMaster University, and he’s the lead author of “The history and development of N-of-1 trials” in The Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine. N-of-1 has existed informally since at least the 16th century, is relatively inexpensive, and can be of great benefit to individual patients. As part of a new generation of practitioners striving to give N-of-1 a central place in medicine, Reza offers a brief reflection on its history and asks the tough question: Why aren’t N-of-1 Trials ubiquitous?
