Dr. Vinay Prasad - a fresh, vibrant voice in health care

Only 33 years old, hematologist-oncologist Dr. Vinay Prasad has exploded into the health care public forum with often biting commentary about things he believes are wrong. He questions promotion of the Cancer Moonshot, precision medicine, overselling of screening tests, and journalism that fixates on the lowest levels of evidence. We touch on all of these themes in this episode. See broader blog post at http://www.healthnewsreview.org/2016/07/podcast-vinay-prasad-md-takes-moonshots-precision-medicine-journalism/
