The 'Decline Effect' and Scientific Truth

May 13, 2011 <http://www.onthemedia.org/episodes/2011/05/13>

Surprising and exciting scientific findings capture our attention and

captivate the press. But what if, at some point after a finding has been

soundly established, it starts to disappear? In a special collaboration with

Radiolab we look at the 'decline effect' when more data tells us less about

scientific truth.

All the best,
