In biomedical fields, certain biomarkers or therapeutic targets sometimes gain rapid momentum, only to cool off later when results are mixed. Watching these cycles has made me more cautious about jumping onto “hot” topics too quickly. How do you evaluate whether a research trend has staying power?

I'm not sure if you can ever fully anticipate what will or won't fizzle out. And sometimes the only way you can know is by jumping into it feet first and trying. There's no shame in trying.

Agreed it’s good to try any way and choose topics that are important so regardless of trendy it will be helpful
