Description

How do patients come to the decision regarding whether or not to initiate dialysis? Well, that is the question that we talk about with Keren Ladin on this week's podcast. Keren is a social science researcher, bioethicist, and assistant professor in the department of Occupational Therapy at Tufts. What becomes clear when you look at Keren's research is the for many patients, there isn't a decision that is made.
