NEJM Interviews with PDF
The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) Audio interview RSS feed. A PDF of the associated article is included. NEJM (http://www.nejm.org) is a weekly general medical journal that publishes new medical research findings, review articles, and editorial opinion on a wide variety of topics of importance to biomedical science and clinical practice.
It's always instructive and often painful to contrast the impressive development of medical science with the more fitful evolution of health policy. The former marches forward more or less systematically; well-developed rules of evidence determine what works, and practical methods build on established facts and test new paradigms. Data and concepts proven true are rarely discarded or forgotten. Not so with health policy.
