I could be wrong but I would think that most medical research isn't done in academia.

Most medical research (as opposed to pharmaceutical development) is done in academia.

Most medical research (as opposed to pharmaceutical development) is done in academia.

The phrase "medical research" inludes both preclinical research AND clinical trials.

Most clinical trials are paid for by private companies, and thus I believe, by a narrow margin, a majority of all medical research is paid for by private companies.
