Editorial staff and contributors at Science-Based Medicine are physicians and other professionals who are alarmed at the manner in which unscientific and pseudoscientific health care ideas have increasingly infiltrated academic medicine and medicine at large. Our goal is to examine these claims in the light of science and skepticism. We believe that the best medicine is based on scientific principles — considering plausibility, for instance, and not just evidence. See About Science-Based Medicine.

SBM is a completely independent endeavor. We receive no industry funding and have no financial conflicts of interest. Our only goal is to promote high standards of science in medicine.

We are always looking for new bloggers. See our brief Submission Guidelines, or contact us.

Emeritus Editor

Wally Sampson was a weekly contributor and founding member of Science-Based Medicine. Unfortunately, he no longer makes regular contributions to SBM (although he still does pop up from time to time). Because of his contributions this blog and, prior this blog’s existence, to fighting quackery, not to mention his inspiration in forming SBM, we consider him an emeritus editor.
