Clinical Cases and Images hosts this week's Grand Rounds, organizing it a la the British Medical Journal.
They have kindly linked to my post Art and Life, which compares the latest novel I read (about genetic selection) with a timely NY Times article on that very subject.
Other posts that leapt out at me:
Huffing: a post from an Alaskan doctor abut the almost unbelievable prevalence of this form of substance abuse in Alaska.
Cervical cancer, vaccines and jackalopes: I have mostly followed the politicization of this vaccine, but blogger Tara Smith follows the medical path of its discovery, and does indeed work jackalopes into the story.
Aggravated DocSurg PSA #2: A humorous look at how some of just won't follow doctor's orders. Humorous only if it hasn't happened to you, of course.
How to Pick a Primary Care/Get the Most Out of Your Doctor: In My Humble Opinion provides a great list of how to shop for a doc, then how to get the most out of your doc. Good sound advice for us all.
Those posts and many many more can be found at this week's Grand Rounds, so check it out!

Thanks for the link. I'm checking out your blog now.
