Matt is a journalist, businessman and author of the book How Innovation Works: And Why It Flourishes in Freedom (https://amzn.to/2D6syWe). Matt has studied how great ideas are created, developed and accepted and he joins me to explain the process and where the next big thing is likely to come from.
Doctors are human so of course they make mistakes. However, the consequences of medical mistakes can be serious and even life threatening.

She is author of the book When We Do Harm: A Doctor Confronts Medical Error (https://amzn.to/3hVGku9).
