Joe Rogan recounts a litigator’s allegation that peer review skips raw trial data

What was said

"If it's peer- reviewed, the scientists do not get to look at the actual data. Okay? They they get to look at the pharmaceutical drug companies scientists version of what the study was."

Joe Rogan says an unnamed litigator told him peer-reviewed drug studies can rely on company-written reports rather than reviewers examining underlying raw data. He also claims firms can run multiple trials, publish only favourable results, and use selective reporting to support marketing claims.
