The Laws that are Shrinking the Telomeres of OB/Gyn Residents

from The Short Coat: An Inside Look at Getting Into and Getting Through Medical School · host Dave Etler and the Students of the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine

Admissions counselor Megan Kosovski joins Aline Sandouk, Emma Barr, Nick Lind, and Hannah Van Ert for this show, because we had a listener question from a Canadian listener not-named "Molson." What it's like, Molson wanted to know, for a Canadian to apply to medical school in the US, which he's considering doing since Canadian schools are so few and the odds are so low. Molson, pull the tab on that brewski and we'll get you sorted. As Executive Producer Jason Lewis is leaving us for greener pastures, Dave is preparing to take part in interviewing his replacement. Which means that he's gotta rev up his BS detector so he can help select the right person. With that in mind, can his co-hosts detect the BS or truth found within the often ridiculous claims found Snopes.com? A tragic incident of a trans man losing his baby after a series of errors and confusion related to his gender is detailed in a case study. Yet another reason for the US graduate medical education system to change how it treats residents might be found in their shrinking telomeres. And the risks to OB/Gyn training that recent abortion bills in Alabama and elsewhere are posing (WARNING: politics and conspiracy theories ahead!)..
