anders huitfeldt

associate professor in evidence-based medicine

About

My primary academic interest is research on how to do research. In particular, I am interested in questions about how we obtain knowledge about the optimal medical decision, the conditions under which we can believe the results of a scientific study, and about whether the scientific process as currently implemented is likely to generate accurate beliefs.
