Show notes

Helen Pearson is the author of the book “Beyond Belief: How Evidence Shows What Really Works.” Helen's problem is this: How do you get people to make important decisions based on high-quality evidence, instead of on hunches or habits?
In this episode, Helen explains:
How a doctor's fatal mistake sparked the evidence-based medicine movement
Why management is so resistant to evidence-based practices
How systematic reviews changed the way she works as a science journalist
Why global trust in science remains high – outside the US
What a randomized trial of pint glasses revealed about preventing violent injuries.
