We have finally re-booted the ETM Course Podcast after a long hiatus, and for our first episode back we have a very special guest, Dr Christine Bowles. Chris is a FACEM but is also a Trauma Physician working on the inpatient Trauma Service at one of Sydney's Major Trauma Centres. We talk in detail about the evolution of the "Trauma Physician" role and Emergency Physicians working on inpatient trauma services, the skill-mix they bring to the job and some of the challenges of working in a traditionally "surgeons only" niche. Chris also tells us about her exciting work with the University of Sydney developing and launching modules on Major Trauma and Advanced Trauma management, and plans for an upcoming module specifically for those who want to work as inpatient Trauma Physicians, which to date there has been no formal training program for.

Huge thanks to Chris for being our first guest on the new-look, reinvigorated ETM Course Podcast!
