Practice-based research--"Blue Highways" on the NIH roadmap.

چکیده
On the old highway maps of America, the main routes were red and the back roads blue. Now even the colors are changing.

Then, in truth, they carry a mysterious cast of blue, and it’s that time when the pull of the blue highway is strongest, when the open road is a beckoning, a strangeness, a place where a man can lose himself.
