Field notes

On the record, properly

80+ giants.
One series.

Since 2012, The Journal of Clinical Investigation has been putting the most decorated names in medicine on camera for its interview series, Conversations with Giants in Medicine. Image Media Lab has filmed 80+ of those conversations: Nobel Prize winners, Lasker Award winners, the people behind the discoveries the rest of the field builds on.

An interview like this gets one chance. It happens on the subject’s calendar, in whatever room the day provides, and it has to hold up as a record, not just a video. So the craft is quiet: prepare deeply, light fast, keep the conversation moving, and let the camera disappear. It’s the same discipline we bring to every executive interview and founder story we film today.

The finished interviews live on JCI’s channels. These links go straight to the source, plus two places to keep going on ours.
