In this episode, Dr's J and Santhosh once again perform their bimonthly roundup of medical stories from around the world, this time with a focus on promising technologies that seem too good to be true. Along the way they discuss the scientific process, status epilepticus, drug phase trials, Scottish scientists, menorrhagia, a vaccine for diabetes, coxsackie virus, a moment of silence for mice, diabetic teardrop monitors, tb urine tests, and more, plus a just the tip from Egypt! So Sit back as we try and try again to teach you all about what's new in medicine!
