Oncology for the Inquisitive Mind

With Michael and Josh

Author: Michael Fernando and Josh Hurwitz

Cancer is a fascinating but rapidly evolving discipline - it's a full-time job just keeping up to date. In this podcast, Dr Michael Fernando and Dr Joshua Hurwitz explore the latest trials, research, and practice-changing updates, as well as regular interviews with renowned oncology specialists. Ideal for those starting their training journey, established specialists and anyone interested in medical science, oncological practice, or terrible jokes. Preferably all three. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
