Zedu Weekly Wrap – 22 July 2022
I didn’t know the car temperature gauge…
went as low as zero! We’ve had some beautiful winter days here this week, but boy has it been hard to get out of bed. Thank goodness for gel warmers 🙂
Getting geared up for the TRain the UltraSound Trainer this weekend – we’ve got a good sized group and we’re looking forward to some fun learning. The October event is already starting to book up, so if you’re interested get in touch – we’d love to see you here.
Highlights in this week’s collection of free ultrasound resources include Michael Prat’s (@PratsEM) chat with Larry Istrail (@dr_larryi), author of the POCUS Manifesto – well worth tuning in for. Also worth a read is the commentary around AI in echo imaging from @ASE360 and sister @CASEfromASE.
Plus keep your eye out for release of our course dates for 2023 – the web programmer is warming his mouse up as we speak.
That’s all for now…see you next week
Mike and Suean

In the words of a previous participant – it’s meta! We’re running this internationally recognised course in Australia for the first time in July and October – don’t miss out.
