   MedUmanity^® is a deep dive podcast focusing on the historical, social, and cultural aspects of medicine. Drawing from archeology, architecture, philosophy, economics, literature, ethics, and other subjects, we examine how medicine influences humanity using jargon free, nontechnical dialogue. 

   With a narrative style, engaging humor, thought provoking stories, and ideas that may inspire you, MedUmanity^® is about the histories, absurdities, controversies, hypocrisies and realities of healthcare. These podcasts provoke questions and provide few answers. How does poverty drive infant mortality? When should an infectious disease mandate incarceration of infected patients? Should hospitals take design influence from cottages, cathedrals, castles, or factories? Can designing a better hospital save lives? Asking questions fuels ideas. Ideas matter. 

   With humility and curiosity, I invite you to join a thoughtful discourse about the achievements, mistakes, and surprising origins of modern medicine. Ever evolving, never perfected, medicine itself is no more than an idea that struggles to meet the standards of its highest potential. This struggle is championed by imperfect people who pack their flaws and frailties into the human stories which pave the twisted path that leads to this world of complex healthcare within which we all live. Exploring this path, and asking thoughtful questions about where it should lead us in the future, is the foundation on which we seek to launch an oratorical journey that will challenge your most basic ideas about medicine.

   Welcome to MedUmanity^®. Please think wildly!
