Episode Notes

Every day, we hear about new scientific studies. Whether it's about how to lose weight, or about vaccines, or the newest pop psychology trend. But how many of these studies actually meet scientific standards? Stuart Ritchie is a psychologist, science communicator, and the author of Science Fictions: How Fraud, Bias, Negligence, and Hype Undermine the Search for Truth. Chris talks to Stuart about the pros and cons of placebo effects, how to spot bad science, and some very solutions for the scientific community.
