This week we discuss two major papers: The first was just recently released in Nature and it's titled "The National Lung Matrix Trial of personalized therapy in lung cancer".

We discuss the second paper, titled "A Randomized Trial of Intensive versus Standard Blood-Pressure Control" and published in the New England Journal of Medicine with Dr. Mark Friedberg, a health policies and performance measurement researcher.
