22/11/12: we decided that once we had our case study Zhi Cheng would concentrate on the purely scientific part, Aoife on the philosophy and I would do the social and economic impacts of misdiagnosis. Yet we needed to find a case study that reunited all our subjects and that linked back to our subject: truth in science.

29/11-6/12: we found the case study: the case of difficult patients that lead to doctors misdiagnosing their patients -limitations to truth: patients not describing illness well/ doctors experience will vary etc -relationship between doctor patient - communication -language barriers, inaccurate description
