7 Minute Medics!
19 November 2019
Hull Medical Society is delighted to announce its sponsorship of the fantastic medical podcast 7 Minute Medics which was created by HYMS graduate Dr Martha Nicholson! Here's what Martha has to say...
Making each episode seven minutes long was a bit of an arbitrary decision, based on the fact that five minutes didn’t seem long enough to cover a topic, and trying to keep it under ten minutes encouraged me to be succinct. I found it very helpful for my own revision to have to summarise revision topics in my own words for the podcast, and decided to get more people involved when I realised that it could be a good way for other medical students to not only revise themselves, but to also get some extra teaching experience and feedback on their work.
With the help of Hull Medical Society I have now been able to purchase a full set of portable recording equipment. As well as being a big upgrade from my smartphone, which I had been using to record since the inception of the podcast, this will allow me to record in more public places which had previously been too noisy to record using my phone, opening up the opportunity to try podcasting to more medical students and junior doctors."
