Reading Clinical Studies: 

Taking off the rose-coloured glasses - and the peril if we don't

Monday Lunch Livestream

With Associate Professor Nathan Cherny

2 December 2021


The generalisability and veracity of research findings from clinical studies can be undermined by issues in design, implementation, and analysis.

Hear Associate Professor Nathan Cherny, visiting from Shaare Zedek Medical Center, Jerusalem, for a structured, rational and guideline-driven approach to the interpretation of clinical trial results. The presentation highlights the perils of not using this approach in terms of scientific, societal, and reputational harms.
