Harold Varmus on NPR's Science Friday

Tomorrow at noon, tune into NPR's Science Friday, as you do every week anyway, I know, and you do not need to be told by me, but this time, make sure you hear Harold Varmus being interviewed about the implementation of the new NIH law and the editorial he wrote in PLoS Biology.

If I remember correctly, NPR Science Friday posts podcasts of the shows a few hours after they air live, so if you miss the show in real time you can come back to it and hear it later.
