The Curious Clinicians

In this episode, we talk curiosity, healing, and the wonders of the human body with Dr. Rana Awdish, bestselling author of In Shock: My Journey from Death to Recovery and the Redemptive Power of Hope and the new book, After Shock, out now!
The book prompts doctors (and everyone else) to feel curious and open to the amazing abilities the human body has to heal. We think that if you enjoy our podcast, you'll find something meaningful to take away from the book. Thanks to Dr. Awdish for joining us!

This week, we talk with Dr. Grace Farris, who is a hospitalist and the author of See One, Do One, Teach One: The Art of Becoming a Doctor: A Graphic Memoir. We explore how she got into comic-drawing, her advice for people who want to explore storytelling about medicine through comics, and some of the backstory behind the book!

Today, we are rebooting an absolute classic from way back in our catalog - episode 9. Avi teaches us about the biology behind the taste of umami and why we might have evolved to find it so delicious.
