Episode 003 — Manni Mohyuddin, MD

Why does so much clinical research never make it to publication—and what does that mean for the evidence we trust?

In this episode of Behind the Slides, we sit down with Manni Mohyuddin to examine how incentives shape the research ecosystem. We discuss the gap between conference abstracts and eventual publication, what gets published (and what doesn’t), and how these dynamics influence the evidence base that clinicians rely on.

A conversation about bias, incentives, and how research becomes “truth” in medicine.

In this episode of Behind the Slides, we sit down with Lisa Rosenbaum for a wide-ranging conversation about the meaning and practice of medicine today. We explore how much agency physicians really have within the healthcare system, whether the challenges in primary care reflect deeper issues across the field, and how clinicians navigate purpose, responsibility, and constraint in their work.

We also discuss the growing role of AI and what it may change—and not change—about how we think, decide, and care for patients.

A conversation about the present and future of being a physician.

What does it actually mean to practice evidence-based medicine?

In this episode, we sit down with Adam Cifu to unpack the gap between clinical evidence and real-world decision making. We explore how data is interpreted at the bedside, why guidelines don’t always translate cleanly into practice, and what it takes to think clearly in the face of uncertainty.

This is a conversation about judgment, tradeoffs, and the limits of evidence—core issues for anyone practicing or training in medicine today.
