Welcome. I'm Dr. Vinay Prasad. I'm a hematologist, oncologist, and I'm associate professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. In my professional life, I see patients, I teach trainees, and I do research in health care policy. This is Plenary Session.

Plenary Session is a podcast at the intersection of medicine, oncology, and health policy,

and you're listening to Season 3. On this week's episode, on today's episode, I have an interview

with Dr. Sarab Jha. He is a radiologist at the University of Pennsylvania, and we'll be talking about the importance of debate and dialogue what it used to mean and what it means in this modern age.

Stay tuned.

But first, a plug.

On plenary session, we've heard listener feedback and we're going to try something new.

We're going to take our long episodes and we're going to put them out piecemeal a little bit,

little bit, little bit, just as you've asked.

And then we will see what happens and how people listen.

So, the experiments on.

I'm back in plenary session, joined via Zoom by Dr. Sarab Jha.

Dr. Jha should need no introduction to folks who are active online or in the real world.

Dr. Jha is a radiologist at the University of Pennsylvania.

He did his medical training in the United Kingdom.

And I think spending time in the United Kingdom has given him a refreshing perspective on the world.

He is a great believer in dialogue, in discourse, in the dialectic, and it's my pleasure to have him here to talk about many things, medicine and beyond.
