I’ve just been updating Doctors’ Gadgets.com. The site has news and discussion about PDAs, EMR and other gadgets that doctors use.

It’s also the host to the video tutorials that accompany the RSM Press book, “The Doctors’ PDA and Smartphone Handbook“.

Medgadget, the top blog for learning about medical devices is running a competition for wannabe Sci-Fi writers:

While we’re blogging about all these great medical advances, we’re getting kind of anxious for the future to just show up, already. We can’t quite imagine what that future will be like… but maybe you can! Or, at the very least, you can tell an entertaining tale involving medicine, from the perspective of a few years from now… or decades, or centuries. Or, write about healthcare in a world just slightly different from today’s.

If you like your Jazz to have a medical flavour, check out “The Arrhythmics“…

The Arrhythmics are a jazz, blues and swing band based around Edgbaston in Birmingham. From Relaxing laid-back grooves to Rat-Pack classics, funky jazz to full-on rhythm and blues, all musical tastes and entertainment requirements are catered for. The band was formed by members of the orchestra of the annual University of Birmingham Medical School musical and each member of the band is either a medical student, medical researcher or fully qualified doctor studying at, or having graduated from University of Birmingham Medical School.
