Archimedes November 2021: Mostly wee




ADC podcast show

Summary: Extracting urine has been the subject of Archimedes in the past, but this month wee (geddit?) have questions relating to when you’ve found a UTI.

We also consider how things can be subject to our alternative ways of thinking about new and old things, and that, for almost everything to be honest, there’s not a level playing field. And we could do with understanding and working on that (https://adc.bmj.com/content/106/11/1135.2). <p>Enjoy, feedback, and submit (following the instructions on the website though. No one wants to waste time and have to go back and rewrite things over and over again do they?).</p>
