[We tried to put together a Halloween episode, but everyone was doing med school stuff. Rude. So enjoy this re-run!]
- As another physician shortage looms, M2s Jeff and Olivia and M1 Fallon look at the reasons–the market forces, political issues, and the missing incentives. There is some good news–a shortage of physicians means that residents get a ton of solicitations for post-training jobs.
- Elon Musk’s Neuralink might be bad for monkeys, but the FDA has cleared the way for human trials to begin. What place do techbros–who have a rep for “moving fast and breaking things”– have in medicine where lives are at stake?
- And Dave gives a pop quiz on this year’s Ig Nobel Prize winners.
