La medicina está rota. Nos gusta imaginar que se basa en pruebas y los resultados de pruebas justas. En realidad, esas pruebas a menudo tienen profundas fallas. Nos gusta imaginar que los médicos están familiarizados con la literatura de investigación que rodea a un medicamento, cuando en realidad gran parte de la investigación les está oculta por las compañías farmacéuticas.

Alumni VoicesWriter, doctor and champion of evidence-based medicine, Dr Ben Goldacre (Magdalen, 1992)Dr Ben Goldacre – author of the bestsellers Bad Science and Bad Pharma – dissects what is wrong with modern medicine and argues for better evidence-based medicine in this podcast. He describes his latest projects, including an Ebola trials tracker, to improve the transparency of clinical trials. Dr Goldacre explains his research at the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences’ Centre for Evidence-based Medicine, part of Oxford University. He also refers to structural challenges facing medicine and highlights the lack of funding for evidence-based projects.

Membranje009 Membranje: slaba znanost s Sašo Novak in Gregorjem Majdičem
Ben Goldacre je britanski zdravniški »geek« in kolumnist, ki ima nenavadno navado: natančno prebere klinične raziskave, s katerimi farmacevti dokazujejo učinkovitost novih zdravil. Enako natančno prebira tudi medijske zapise in opozarja na znanstvene neumnosti, ki jih objavljajo novinarji.
Njegova prva knjiga Slaba znanost ni razveselila zdravniških kolegov, farmacevtov ali novinarjev. Postala pa je ena temeljnih pripomočkov za številne znanstvenike, ki se ukvarjajo s popularizacijo in komunikacijo znanosti. Zato sva se v slaboznanstveni epizodi Membranja pogovarjala z dvema slovenskima znanstvenikoma, ki sta se naučila pogovarjati z laično javnostjo, o...
