Dermatology Snapshots
Consultant Dermatologists Dr Jiyad and Dr Ferguson at St George's hospital, Tooting produce a monthly journal review newsletter, which summarises clinically relevant studies, from various dermatology and general medical journals. There just never seems to be enough time to stay up to date with all the various journals and find publications that contain clinically relevant messages. This is the podcast version so that you can keep up to date whilst enjoying the delights of the Northern line or whilst driving to work in your Aston Martin. But perhaps not when cycling to work.
All of this work is generously supported by an educational grant from Abbvie.
