Why most published research findings are false

Michael Duffy interviewed Professor John Ioannidis (Professor: Department of Hygiene & Epidemiology University of Ioannina Greece) on ABC Radio National program Counterpoint on Monday. Professor Ioannidis is co-author of a paper titled "Why most published research findings are false". This makes interesting reading and listening for those who still believe that published papers are without flaws.

The paper is available through Pub Med at:
