Description

Pomegranate Health is a podcast about the culture of medicine. You'll hear insights from clinicians, researchers, and advocates as they tackle important questions — like how to make difficult clinical and ethical decisions without being influenced by bias, how to communicate better with patients and colleagues, and how to provide healthcare that’s both efficient and fair.

If you're a Fellow of the RACP, time spent listening can be counted toward your CPD hours. And if you're a Basic Physician Trainee, the [Case Report] series can help you prepare for your long case clinical exams.


This is also the home of [IMJ On-Air], featuring authors from the Internal Medicine Journal sharing their latest research. The [Journal Club] episodes give RACP researchers a space to talk through their work published in other academic journals. And for Basic Trainees, the [Case Report] series can help you prepare for your long case clinical exams.
