PeerPOV: The Pulse on Medicine
inDEPTH: HIV & Prostate Cancer Prevention
Welcome to this episode of Physician’s Weekly podcast. I am your host, Dr. Rachel Giles, from Medicom Medical Publishers, in collaboration with Physician’s Weekly.
Today’s episode features two interviews, with an inDEPTH look at prevention. First, we discuss primary prevention of HIV-AIDS from a community global approach, with Rachel Baggaley, MBBS, MSc, the team lead for testing, prevention, and populations in the Global HIV, Hepatitis and STI Programs at the WHO, who has recently published papers in the Lancet HIV and BMJ. Our second interview is with Alan Pollack, MD, PhD, Chair and Professor of Radiation Oncology at the University of Miami’s Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. He talks us through his recently published trial in the Lancet about a new intervention for secondary prevention of prostate cancer after prostatectomy.
Enjoy listening!
