A hard day’s night: The MedTalk Podcast returns

The MedTalk Podcast returns with its first episode of the year.

The editors from Digital Health Age, Medical Plastics News, European Pharmaceutical Magazine and Med-Tech Innovation – yes we all made it this time – sit down to discuss the biggest and best stories that 2018 has had to offer so far.

Jeremy Hunt makes the news with his latest digital blunder and NHS Digital’s new cyber-defence partnership with Microsoft gets discussed.

The editors get topical as Lu talks about the UK’s recently announced plastic recycling scheme and asks what we can be doing to better combat medical plastic waste. Felicity highlights the United States’ opioid epidemic and the recent developments taking place within states across the US.

Dave gives the other editors a surprising insight into the insect world and how a beetle’s penis could help make catheters safer. You should definitely stick around for that one.

You can listen to the latest episode on Soundcloud or iTunes.
