"We need a more sophisticated understanding of the replication crisis, not as a moment of realization after which we were able to move forward with higher standards, but as an ongoing rot in the scientific process that a decade of work hasn’t quite fixed." vox.com/future-perfect/21504…

Medicine will look completely different in the next few years: wearables, screening, data, and tech. I’m not sure physicians (this one included) are prepared, trained, or understand the new challenges associated with advances like this.
