...Aylin and his colleagues are keen to test the link further. One problem: tracking admissions for a longer period before and after junior doctors begin work might offer a more reliable sample; extend the monitoring period too far, though, and the two groups soon overlap.

His frequent close ups-of black and green screen computers and clunky recording devices serve as fond reminders of early 90s technology. Even Whitacre’s paranoid fantasies are very much a product...
