Hello and welcome to Sigmat Nutrition Radio. This is episode 416 of the podcast. And as ever, I am your host, Danny Lennon.

Today I'm going to be talking with Dr. David Noonan, who is a lecturer and senior research fellow

at the Center for Evidence-based Medicine at the University of Oxford. And there he is the

director of their postgraduate certificate in teaching evidence-based healthcare,

as well as being the lead tutor for their internationally renowned teaching evidence-based medicine course.

He's a principal investigator with research interests that are very broad,

but include things like the prevention and treatment of lifestyle-related conditions,

improving the understanding and use of research evidence, and then meta-epidemiology, or research on

research. And we're going to discuss a lot of concepts related to evidence-based medicine,

why it's important, but also how improvements can be made to teach

medicine and interpret research more productively going forward. And really, this hits into a couple of

pieces that David has written in recent times, essentially postulating about an evidence-based medicine 2.0,

or this idea that we can maybe switch to an evidence-informed healthcare phrasing.

And there's a number of issues that will be discussed throughout this conversation.

I think you'll hopefully find useful.

So the show notes to this episode are going to be over

at sigmautrition.com slash episode 416. There I will link up to any articles or research papers that we

discuss throughout this conversation. I will link up to where you might find more relevant links

related to this topic, as well as more of David's background.

And then, of course, you can get transcripts to our podcast episodes over on the website.

So the show notes are sigmautrition.com slash episode 416.

And with that, let's jump into this week conversation with Dr. David Noonan.
