Medical Podcasts

I have a long commute at the moment so I’ve been investigating putting some Podcasts on my SPV M5000 pocket pc phone.

I’ve mostly been subscribing to tech podcasts but I also found some medical ones which might be of use to other doctors. Medical Podcasting seems to be in it’s infancy at the moment but I think it’s a great way of reaching people. The Washington Post claims there are close to 2000 medical podcasts out there. Perhaps I’ll start a Medical Informatics podcast… Here’s the list of medical podcasts I’ve found from various sources (most of these come from the document at The Krafty Librarian:
