Dr. Jennifer Miller has been an author of dozens of studies about rare endocrine diseases over the last two decades. Hundreds of patients fly to Gainesville, Fla., from all over the U.S. to see her for treatment.
But now, her office is inundated with faxes, emails, texts and phone calls that have little to do with her life's work. Miller, a professor of pediatric endocrinology at the University of Florida's College of Medicine, has research papers in her inbox that just need a few finishing touches before publication in medical journals. She doesn't have time for them.
