#362 - 50 Studies Every Neonatologist Should Know
Description
What if you could hold in your hands a roadmap to the most influential studies that have shaped modern neonatology? In this special episode of The Incubator Podcast, Ben and Daphna sit down with Dr. John Zupancic, Dr. Susanna Hay, and Dr. Roger Soll to discuss the release of their new book, 50 Studies Every Neonatologist Should Know. Together with their co-editors Dr. Barbara Schmidt and Dr. Haresh Kirpalani, the team has distilled decades of neonatal research into an accessible, thoughtfully structured volume designed to guide clinicians, trainees, and educators.
The conversation explores the motivation behind the book, the editorial process of selecting just 50 landmark trials from thousands, and the importance of revisiting historical studies to understand how evidence has evolved over time. From the groundbreaking DART trial to the early work of pioneers like Bill Silverman, the authors emphasize not only the science but also the stories, challenges, and human insights that lie behind each study.
Whether you are a seasoned neonatologist or just beginning your training, this episode provides a behind-the-scenes look at a project that brings clarity and context to evidence-based practice.
