Johns Hopkins and Other Medical Podcasts

Johns Hopkins Medicine has a health podcast which is described as "a lively discussion of the week'’s medical news and how it may affect you."

The five-minute podcast features Rick Lange, M.D. who is the chief of clinical cardiology, and the director of the Hopkins radio news service.

eWeek features other prominent medical podcasts:

- The New England Journal of Medicine, Science, and Nature all have podcasts that summarize the contents of their most recent issues

- The Arizona Heart Institute offers audio and video podcasts focused on cardiology on CVMD.org

- Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has a podcast that gives consumers tips on obtaining the best medical care
