A zero my friend.

It is quite possible that you were born on another planet where civilisation and technology evolved in a fundamentally different way, and that is why you are not familiar with what clinical research is on planet Earth. However, it is more likely that you deliberately sabotaged the quiz in order to read this rare text. Well, your goal has been achieved, you can disregard the test and go on doing your own business, which will move you closer and closer to the Nobel Prize!
