In this episode, Prof. Jacob Stegenga (Nanyang Technological University), author of the book, Medical Nihilism, chats with us why we should all be more sceptical about medical interventions. Jacob discusses the placebo effect, research malleability, and publication bias. Sinead and Kat ask how we can know when we are being misled by journals and media reports, and encourage Jacob to release his music on Spotify. 

Remember people, be savvy!
