Dear Surgery 101 listenersI gave a rather unusual talk last week on the U of A's Technology & the Future of Medicine course at the U of A entitled: "A Biological Repairman's Reflections on the Coming Singularity". Essentially, it's a look forward at what rapidly advancing technologies may do to our ideas about the body, surgery and life in general between now and 2050. The course organizers are promoting the course by posting the talks on YouTube, so if you want to take a look, it's at the link below - feel free to distribute/share as you see fit.

From The Podcast
Surgery 101
Welcome to Surgery 101, a series of podcasts produced with the help of the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. The podcasts are intended to serve as brief introductions or reviews of surgical topics for medical students. We've aimed to cover a single topic in between 10-20 minutes so that you can quickly get a good idea of the basic concepts involved. Every episode is divided into chapters and concludes with several key points to summarize the topic. We are always keen to receive your feedback on our podcasts, and we are accepting suggestions for additional topics. New episodes are published every Friday.'Surgery 101' was created by Dr Parveen Boora and Dr Jonathan White, and is supported by the Department of Surgery at the University of Alberta. Our 2010 series of podcasts are brought to you by the Undergrad Surgery Mobile Podcasting Studio Team which is: Jonathan, Jenni and Tracy, with the assistance of the Surgery 101 Experts of Edmonton. Note to experts: please note that these podcasts are only intended as brief introductions for medical students - we cannot delve into the more complex nuances of advanced surgery in a 10-minute podcast. We encourage all listeners to supplement their learning by seeing patients, assisting at surgeries and reading widely!Join Podchaser to...
