Bonus Episode: Thomas talks with STAT
A bonus episode! Here is a conversation that I had recently with STAT, the excellent publication about health and medicine.If you are in the business of health and medicine, you surely know about STAT - For a decade they have been doing fantastic reporting from the frontiers of biotech, public health, and policy.STAT really has been a key resource for Drug Story, so I was honored to talk with STAT’s Torie Bosch for their First Opinion podcast. If you’re curious what inspired the idea for this show, or about the bigger ideas behind the show, or why I think everyone should get a degree in public health, well you’ll get some of the backstory here.
