Show Notes
And we’re back for 2025. We thought we’d ease into this season with some medical stories. From the Manhattan project and the demon core to the inspirational stories of Dr Elizabeth Blackwell, Dr Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, and Dr Emma Constance Stone. We are reaching back into the medical archives. Our special guests: Dr Travis Brown, himself! This Medical Life podcast is available on all podcasting services and Spotify.
