OXFORD TALK ON PLACEBO EFFECTS (and their naughty cousin nocebo effects) 13 October 17:15-18:00

I'll be taking a trip down memory lane to give a guest lecture on the History and Philosophy of Evidence-Based Healthcare course at the @UniofOxford @CebmOxford. Together with some amazing colleagues, I founded the course 15 years ago, and happy to see it thriving--indeed improving--under the leadership of @JepBanks, #ClaireFriedemannSmith and others.

If you're around, please come to the talk, I'll be making my Scientific arguments without using scientific jargon.
