Question the Start and End With the Question: How to Conquer Science Overwhelm

YOU CAN CHANGE THE STORY YOU BELIEVE

It doesn’t matter which health profession you are in. Whether you are a doctor or a trainer or a health writer, you are taught to use every tool available to ensure that you’re doing what’s best for the people you serve.

But the message you receive is to ignore your experience in favor of ‘the evidence’. You feel like you don’t have the tools to leverage research. You’re led to believe this is a knowledge problem.

That’s because, for years, you were tested like it’s a knowledge problem.

But it’s not a knowledge problem. It’s a skill problem. That’s why you can pass a test, but still believe you’re deficient in some fundamental way.

The lie you are fed is a story you have internalized. Getting better at evaluating research means changing the story you believe.

Question the Start and End with the Question is about changing this crucial story.

• What if statistics weren't the limiting factor for using health research?
• What if you knew how to identify irrelevant research?
• What if you spent your time mostly on research that really mattered to you and your audience?

How would your professional life be different? How would it be better?
