The history of science, and especially medical science, offers a steady narrative of discoveries. Sometimes, these replace old ways of doing things, but often the process is slow, as dogma and entrenched thinking linger – sometimes for centuries. This week Rotations treads onto the tangled and often controversial landscape of DOGMA, and welcomes Dr. Douglas Axe, Director of the Biologic Institute, published molecular biology scholar and author, to talk about the difficulties in challenging established ideas in the biological sciences. We also thank Assistant Professor Anna Kerr, Ph.D., research faculty in Family Medicine, as our SPOTS (Special Person off the Street).
This show was produced by Todd Fredricks, hosted by Nisarg Bakshi, engineered by Kyle P. Snyder and edited by Brian Plow.
