Steven Nissen: Reflections of a Master Clinical Trialist

In episode 14 of the CardiOhio Podcast, we interview a legendary clinician, teacher and trialist in American Cardiology, Dr. Steven Nissen from the Cleveland Clinic.
We review his contributions to contemporary trials and lipids and diabetes, as well as his analytic approach to reviewing clinical studies. We then discuss his most recent contribution to the field of lipid therapy, the CLEAR outcomes study published earlier this year.
