Blood Buddy: Hematopathology and The Cellfie Project


Listen Later

Remember the opening scene to Blade where all the vampires dance in a Blood Rave? Well that's basically the scene at Dr. David Conrads lab. Minus the rave music. And minus the dancing in the blood. And minus the vampires. Actually it's really, nothing like that scene. But there's definitely blood. In this illuminating episode, the guys sit down with Dr. David Conrad, a distinguished Hematopathologist at Nova Scotia Health and Associate Professor at Dalhousie University. Dr. Conrad takes the hosts behind the scenes of lab medicine, unraveling the mysteries of hematopathology. The science of blood is fascinating and Dr. Conrad is an incredible science communicator. The gang also dive into the heartwarming Cellfie Project, an initiative Dr. Conrad spearheads at the IWK Health Centre, offering children with leukemia a unique perspective on their condition. Hear how this project empowers young patients by allowing them to explore their own blood cells!
