  1. It’s probably just me, but the body language and tone has me believing she is not happy about this interview. What is it about these questions that make her uncomfortable?

  2. 8:50 collecting data is still biased. Say I’m studying depression I have group one measuring neurotransmitter levels in the brain group 2 collect data on moods and thoughts group 3 collect data on social cultural factors group 4 collect data on spiritual existential meaning. Even before scientist, analyze the data they are already framing what depression is by choosing which data to collect and what to dismiss. What counts as legitimate data? What tools in concepts are shaped by prior theories, methods or world views? Is depression a biological model then you’ll measure serotonin is depression a psychological model then you’ll conduct talk therapy. You see you can’t get away from bias in science, even if you’re “just” collecting data.
