I speak to scientists, clinicians, students, parents, policymakers, podcast hosts, and anyone else who wants to think carefully about evidence, health, and how knowledge actually works.
I’m available for podcasts, panels, university lectures, public events, and private engagements. I prefer conversations over slide decks.
