      3. Podcast Trailer: Welcome to Just Medicine

        Welcome to Just Medicine! Here, we mean “just” in the fairness capacity and not in the “only” sense. In fact, this podcast is not “just” about medicine but how medicine is applied and adapted to the real-world conditions of our patients. This is a student-led podcast created by medical students for medical trainees. We will be bringing episodes to you monthly, where we sit down and chat with a guest about a social justice topic that they are passionate about.
