It all started in a cupboard - The life of Sir Kenneth Calman
This week Lewis talks with one of the university's most successful and renowned alumni, Sir Kenneth Calman. He has held many positions, from the UK's Chief Medical Officer to to Chancellor of the university. However, his greatest achievement was undoubtedly being a past MedChir president. The conversation centres around Sir Kenneth's new autobiography: It all started in a cupboard. Which you can buy on Amazon. Disclaimer: This is not an ad, MedChir was not paid by Sir Kenneth to promote his book.
Graphic Medicine: Illustrating Patients' Lives
In our third episode, Lewis is joined by Billy to talk to Dr Lottie Corr. A comics creator, doctor and medical educator, who's work invovles incorporating graphic medicine into and uncovering unconcious bias within the medical curriculum.
Doctor Sleep (no not that one)
In our second episode, Lewis is joined by Dr Mike Farquhar, a somnologist from London. To talk about the importance of sleep, a century old curse and exploding head syndrome. This episode certainly won't put you to sleep, but Dr Farquhar could if you wanted to.
Careers, consultancy and comedy - a chat with Professor JP Leach
Ever wondered what Dr JP Leach used to get up to before he became a part time Neurologist/Med School Overlord/Kevin Bridges tribute act? No? Well too bad. In our debut episode, Lewis O'Connor (who you might remember from such university elections as: all of them...) sits-down to talk stand-up, rejection, failure and neurology. It's a good listen, we promise. MedTalks: Ideas worth cheering.
