ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Behind the Slides is a podcast about the thinking behind modern medicine—how evidence is generated, interpreted, and applied in the real world. Through conversations with leading clinicians, researchers, and thinkers, we go beyond the headlines and publications to explore the reasoning, tradeoffs, and career decisions that shape what we do and why we do it.
If you’ve ever wondered what really drives clinical decisions—or how to build a meaningful career in medicine—this is the conversation behind it all.
