In this paper, we shall argue that since phase IV trials are by nature and purpose closer to practice than the other phases of drug development, physician-researchers are primarily physicians and secondarily researchers whose fiduciary obligation to their patient-participants remains, although some aspects of this obligation may be waived.
There is thus, very often, a communication gap between research scientists, toxicologists, occasionally statisticians, translational and later development physicians vs. kinetically minded numerical data analysts, also known as pharmacometricians.
Since only a very small number of new antibiotics are under development, physicians can not rely on new drugs alone to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria, but must also introduce policies to reduce the emergence and spread of resistant bacteria [ 1].

Leadership has emerged as a crucial component of professional development for physicians in academic medicine.
