Dr. H. Jackson Downey sits down with MedEvidence!™ to give the low-down on keeping your lipoprotein(a) numbers down. Lipoprotein little a, also called Lp(a), is a really, really, really, really, really bad cholesterol that is genetically determined, meaning exercise and diet don't help lower the numbers. Instead, Dr. Downey explains, clinical trials are looking into investigational medications for this bad type of cholesterol. Dr. Downey describes the ins and outs of Lp(a) and how clinical research is our best bet for solutions to this dangerous cholesterol.

Dr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to relate his latest reading - the biography of the "father of the atomic bomb," J. Robert Oppenheimer - to medicine. He shares the sentiment that science is the practice of making the complex understandable, and explains that this is also the goal of medicine. The doctor explains the process of medicine as an effort to distill complicated circumstances into comprehensible, actions; on both the individual level and - with clinical trials - on the largest of scales.
