This podcast focuses on bringing Art and Science back to Medicine.
We've lost the art of healing and our practices lag the impressive developments in the biological sciences. My goal is to reignite interest in science and to restore a regard for humanity in the face of ever-growing disengagement in my profession.

The Clot Thickens in Atherosclerosis--but How?
The Clot Thickens in Atherosclerosis--but How?
This episode is based on a request by a listener to address Dr. Malcolm Kendrick's hypothesis on the clot as the underlying initiator of atherosclerosis which he proposed in his book, The Clot Thickens. Based on his observations, Dr. Kendrick talks about atherosclerosis as a blood disorder from increased clotting due to damage to the blood vessel lining. My points in this episode clarify the immune science of atherosclerosis and blood clotting, and delve into the significance and role of platelets in the disease process.
