Why Skepticism Matters & How Alt-med Tried To Kill Me

Presented by Sean Slater and Heather Pentler of Edinburgh Skeptics Society

Fake news; slippery politicians; bad ideas – Sean Slater will explore tools such as Scientific Skepticism that we can use to help cut through the junk before Heather Pentler examines alternative medicine and chronic illness: what treatments are being offered by CAM pracitioners? Do they actually work? And, most importantly, can they be harmful?
