This week's episode begins with praise for the recent article by Booth CM, Karim S, and Mackillop WJ on real-world data published in Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology. Next, we tackle the resignation of Scott Gottlieb as FDA commissioner and how we can measure the success of the FDA. Finally, we have an interview with Dr. Deborah Cohen of OHSU on effective communication between the clinician and the patient and how we can use data from the Electronic Health Record to make meaningful improvements in care.
