Another way of learning is to listen to Podcasts that provide current and relevant information on medical / health topics. Podcasts also have the advantage of being downloadable to your IPod, MP3 player or other mobile device for listening at your convenience.
Below is a selected list of Podcasts from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) website. You can listen to each Podcast using the player on the CDCP site (click on the play icon on the player). Or, you can also download the audio file to your own computer or player. Each Podcast has a transcript that you can view and/or print out to follow along or for later reference.
To access the Podcast, click on its title. The length of each Podcast is indicated as well (minutes:seconds).
