The ResearchWorks Podcast
The ResearchWorks Podcast is aimed at health professionals working in child health. It explores emerging, modern, evidence-based research, including behind-the-scenes stories and interviews with well-known authors and researchers. Episodes also cover material that never made it into published papers and explain how listeners can apply the findings in clinical practice.
