Canceled By Science, Now Running It: Dr. Jay Bhattacharya Brings Humility to the NIH
Question the science and you’re labeled dangerous. Do it anyway — and you end up running the NIH.
Dr. Jay Bhattacharya went from being smeared as a “fringe epidemiologist” for opposing COVID lockdowns to leading the National Institutes of Health at a time when trust in science is collapsing. Dr. Bhattacharya addresses scientific dissent, free speech in medicine, the real fallout of lockdowns, chronic disease, environmental health, and whether the NIH can be rebuilt to serve the people — not the institutions.
