Abstract
"It is perhaps today, where a certain underevaluation well, even disrespect o f scientific research is growing useful again and again to refer to the fact o f how well suited the discovery o f insulin is to demonstrate that unprejudiced scientific research which may not appear to be o f immediate practical value, sooner or later will be fruitful also to clinical practice" Oskar Minkowski, speech at the celebration of the Society for Internal Medicine of Rhein-Westphalen, 18 November, 1929 [1].
