Helen Lewis meets science writer Stuart Ritchie to discuss how science has lost its way, and what can be done about it. Ritchie explains how dubious experiments he spotted as a young academic spurred him to write his book Science Fictions: Exposing Fraud, Bias, Negligence and Hype in Science. He tells Helen why he has chosen to leave academia to become a science journalist. And he sets out why he thinks a radically more transparent approach, 'open science', could address the problems he has identified. Producer: Phil Tinline
