2-sentence description:
Dr. Anita Clayton — UVA's chair of psychiatry and the researcher who built the field's standard scale for measuring antidepressant sexual dysfunction — joins Dr. Will Sauvé and Dr. Brittany Albright to trace a career spent proving what drug labels wouldn't say. From a fluoxetine label that said 1.9% when she was seeing 20% in clinic, to fighting the FDA over how women's desire gets measured, to the postpartum and depression treatments she's running trials on right now.
