Decoding the BS of Clinical Trials with Julian Sass, Ph.D
Double-blind. Randomized. Independent. Erythemal doses. Do these words mean anything to you? If not, you’re in the right place — and they do, you’re also in the right place. We’re uncovering what happens during a clinical trial and what all those percentages we see on packaging really mean. With us is Julian Sass, Ph.D who is an expert in clinical trials. Julian shares what happens in a clinical trial from start to finish, what he looks for when it comes to SPF protection, what is a drug claim vs. claims cosmetics can make, and why not doing a clinical trial doesn’t mean a product isn’t effective.
