The evidence

The issues - tales from the archive

Colin Blakemore presents the BMJ's new video series, told in eight parts. These stories delve into the BMJ's 169 year old archive to unearth some of the leading thinkers of their time, and show the contribution they have made to modern medicine.

In this second video, Colin looks at the issues surrounding medical research with Bad Science author and columnist Ben Goldacre; Iain Chalmers, editor of the James Lind Library; and BMJ deputy editor Tony Delamothe.
