Neal D. Barnard

American physician, author, and clinical researcher

Neal D. Barnard practised at a period when medicine itself was being rebuilt on new foundations.

The record lists Neal D. Barnard as American physician, author, and clinical researcher.

Neal D. Barnard was born at Fargo in 1953. His recorded nationality is United States. He trained at George Washington University Medical School and George Washington University.

Antibiotics, imaging and the randomised trial defined twentieth-century medicine; evidence replaced authority as the standard.

His posts were held at Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.

Clinical knowledge is accumulated slowly and revised often, usually at some cost.

That the work was done from United States matters: hospitals, training and research funding are unevenly distributed, and they decide which questions can be asked.

Neal D. Barnard is still working, and the assessment of the contribution is not yet complete.
