Inexperienced researcher gives too much caffeine to subjects
What is this about?
This blog post is about two research subjects who received 100 times more caffeine than they were supposed to and were consequently hospitalised.
Why is this important?
It shows that even when there is a protocol for trials involving human subjects, experiments can go terribly wrong.
